Google has made the Internet a more accessible place, not only by providing one of the fastest search engines, but also by providing many other useful applications with it and one of them is Gmail — sometimes a boon, sometimes a disaster — and your identity on the Internet.
Where you handle all your official emails to the office, informal emails sent to friends and family, and even subscription emails from your favorite football club, magazine, etc — connecting you with Internet.
Sometimes things can go south. It could be an unwanted relationship or a nasty stranger spamming you with emails you don’t want to do anything about.

But don’t worry. You don’t have to be bothered by things you don’t want to be bothered with, and unlike life, the internet gives you the tools to be able to do so — so does Gmail.
How to block someone on desktop Gmail?
Sign in to your Gmail account and open the message sent by the person you’re trying to block.
Find the down arrow in the top-right corner of the message window, next to the reply icon, and click it.
Select ‘Block (sender)’ and then confirm it in the pop-up window by clicking ‘Block’.
The intended person will be blocked and all emails sent by them will fall into spam. You won’t see any of their emails in your inbox and certainly won’t be notified.
How to unblock?
In case you feel regret for blocking that person or have accidentally blocked someone, don’t worry, unblocking will take a bit of work.
Just go to the blocked person’s email, click the down arrow in the top right corner of the message and select ‘Unblock (sender)’.
Confirm unblocking on the pop-up box and all emails from this sender will appear in your inbox and won’t be marked as spam.

Simply go to the sender’s existing message, tap the three-dot menu and select ‘Unblock (sender)’ from the drop-down menu.
