- Select "More settings" from the dropdown menu.

- In the "From" field, enter the domain you want to block (e.g., @example.com).

Method 2: Block a domain using the Yahoo Mail search function

Method 3: Block a domain using a third-party email client
If you use a third-party email client like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird to access your Yahoo Mail account, you can block domains using the client's built-in spam filtering features. Consult your email client's documentation for instructions on how to block domains.
Note: Blocking a domain will prevent emails from that domain from reaching your Yahoo Mail inbox. However, it's important to note that this method may not be 100% effective in blocking all spam emails from that domain, as spammers can use various techniques to evade filters.
