Note: Blocking a sender on Yahoo Mail will prevent them from sending you emails, but it will not prevent them from sending you emails if they use a different email address.

Also, keep in mind that Yahoo Mail's spam filters are designed to automatically block suspicious emails, so you may not need to block senders manually. However, if you're still receiving unwanted emails from a particular sender, blocking them can be a good way to reduce the amount of spam you receive.
