Automatically delete blocked email senders to the trash (Not the junk mail folder)

Is there a way to automatically delete (as in send directly to the trash) my blocked senders?

I have ticked the box that says send blocked users to the trash, but it only puts them in the junk mail folder.

This requires sifting through 300 emails per day to make sure I don't delete something important that has been funneled to the "JUNK" mailbox.

This is ridiculous and needs a fix.

You can look at rules as an alternative—

Change Add Rule settings in Mail on Mac - Apple Support

Filter emails in Mail on Mac - Apple Support

Use rules to manage emails you receive in Mail on Mac ...

There is no choice in rules to allow one to delete every blocked sender.

You must add each individual sender to a rule.

Not possible unless you have a few hundred hours to spare.

This is an easily fixable fault in the system

Same problem - After updating to iOS 17.3 (updating always creates problems, sadly) - incoming e-mails from blocked senders Remain In Inbox. The red "blocked sender" symbol shows in the header, but the message is not relocated. Blocked Sender mails do not go to Junk or to Trash since the update.

Yes, I have gone through all the Settings steps. No help.
