iPad email spam
I have a persistent scam spammer getting past the block feature. They seem to evade the block by changing the prefix of their .com address.
I cannot find a way to block him, any help.?😀
iPad, iPadOS 15
... They seem to evade the block by changing the prefix of their .com address.
Is there anything about the email address that is always the same? Other than the .com at the end that is.
If so you can easily create a Mail Rule to automatically send those messages to Junk. In other words if the sender is always using spammer@thismail.com and spammer@thatmail.com a Mail Rule would be an easy fix.
Here is a trivial example, using Mail on Mac:
Use rules to manage emails you receive in Mail on Mac explains how to create and use Mail Rules on a Mac. For iCloud Mail specific instructions applicable for an iPad, read Set up rules to filter email in Mail on iCloud.com - Apple Support.
Otherwise, keep manually sending those emails to Junk. Mail will eventually learn to do that automatically from the context of the message, the message headers, and other criteria.
