Email Question

Does anyone know how to delete or block a single email from an email site. I have an account through Yahoo and every time I go on my inbox page I get a Trump Maga committee ad, having a horribly worded survey which directs all responses to Trump's favor, and often has the grinning visage off the Cheeto in Chief. I'm getting pretty sick of it and would love nothing better than to block it. Any suggestions?

You should be able to "report as spam". Are you using the yahoo mail interface or something else?

Check it off as spam. Any others from that source will go straight to the spam folder.

At the very bottom of that email in small print should be an unsubscribe link that will remove you from all future emailing from that source.

Unfortunately it is not an email, it appears to be an add at the top of the yahoo mail page, so I doubt I could call it spam or unsubscribe, but I will check, It is not always there, just most of the time, but sometimes other ads are in its place.

Ah, ok - if you click the top right corner of a Yahoo email ad you should have the option to manage the ad content - blocking future ads from undesirable sources. At least the version I’m using, hopefully that works for you!

Ah, banner ads and such. I use the "adblock" extension in Google Chrome. I don't see those things.
