Marking their messages as spam isn’t enough, since you don’t want to depend on spam filters to keep them out of your inbox. In Yahoo Mail, you can block up to 500 addresses from sending you messages. Here’s how to make sure you never get email from someone again.  
1. Sign in to your Yahoo Mail account.2. Open any email from the offending sender. (If you already know this person’s email address, you can skip to step 5).
