From time to time, all of us receive emails from people we have no intention of staying in contact with. And when that happens, usually we just maintain our silence, hoping that they will eventually stop emailing. The problem is that most people who send annoying emails do not get the hint that you have no desire to stay in touch with them even when you maintain radio silence. They just keep sending you more and more emails, in the hope of receiving a reply someday.
Of course, you can take measures that are supposed to stop unwanted emails, like deleting their mails as soon as they arrive without even opening, pretending not to see the mails at all, blocking email addresses one by one etc. But none of those measures deal with the real issue. That is, none of the mentioned methods actually stops a person from sending you mails in the first place.
However, there is one route you can take to achieve exactly that. There is a way that gives you the power to stop someone from sending you mails on their own accord. That way or method involves making use of a fake bounce email sender, like Block Sender for Gmail.
