  4. Click on "Filters" from the left-hand menu.
  5. Click on "Add filter" at the top of the page.
  6. In the "From" field, enter the domain you want to block (e.g., @example.com).
  7. Select "Block" from the "Action" dropdown menu.
  8. Click "Save" to save the filter.

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

  1. Log in to your Yahoo Mail account.

  5. In the search results, click on the "More" dropdown menu next to the email you want to block.

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.
