How To Block Emails From a Specific Domain In Clean Email
Have you noticed that you continually get PayPal spam emails even after you’ve unsubscribed from email lists? Sometimes companies send messages from multiple addresses or subdomains, making it extremely difficult to unsubscribe from all email communication. To completely unsubscribe from a company sometimes requires blocking the whole domain. Here are the steps for how to do this:
- Go to Inbox or All Mail smart view in Clean Email.
- In the search box, type in “paypal.com” (without quotation marks.)
- Click on the “Select All” button.
- Click on Block action.
Taking these steps will create an automated block rule which will send any email communication from that specific domain straight to your trash can.
Move PayPal Emails to a Dedicated "Read Later" Folder
If you want to continue receiving email communication from PayPal but read it later, Clean Email has a feature allowing you to do that.
To move PayPal emails to a read later folder, follow these steps:
- Sign into your app’s account and click on the Unsubscriber button.
- Type “@paypal” in the search box.
- Push the “Read Later” tab on top.
- Messages marked as read later will automatically be moved into a new folder and will no longer show up in your inbox.
Set an Automatic Rule To Filter Emails from PayPal
If you do not want to delete your PayPal notifications but would rather set up a rule to archive them, label them unread, or move them to a specific folder, you can use the automatic rule feature in Clean Email. For example, if you set up an automatic rule to mark all PayPal emails read, every new message matching the rule will be automatically marked as read in your inbox.
