You are not going to be able to block messages that you receive from an email address, in advance. There is an alternate method available by setting Filter Unknown Senders. If this filter is set to ON, then any message sent from a sender that is not in your Contacts will be saved in a Separate Tab in the Messages app. This alternative will not prevent unknown sender messages from coming in, however, it will save them in a separate tab for you to review.


If would like to try this alternative, then open Settings ➡️ Messages ➡️ Filter Unknown Senders: Set this switch to ON.
