Spam and blocking

Block unwanted senders and manage spam across all your email accounts.

Missive has built-in blocking that works across all email account types (Gmail, Outlook, IMAP, etc.). You can block specific email addresses or entire domains.

Mark as spam is only available for email accounts you own or shared accounts you have a delegated access to. It is not available when you are mentioned in someone else's private email.

Blocking senders

1

Select the conversation from the unwanted sender

2

Click Mark as spam

From the toolbar or right-click menu.

3

Choose your blocking option

• Block the specific address (e.g., [e-mail])

• Block the entire domain (e.g., all emails from @example.com)

4

Click Block

Future emails from blocked addresses or domains are automatically marked as spam.

The domain blocking option is not available for popular email providers like Gmail or Outlook to prevent accidental broad blocks.

Unblocking senders

To unblock a sender, find an email from the blocked sender in your spam folder and click Mark as not spam.

Accessing spam

To view emails marked as spam:

1. Click + More in the left sidebar

2. Select Main Section

3. Click Spam to pin it to your sidebar

You can then click the Spam mailbox to view all spam emails.

If you're looking for a "Junk" folder, Missive calls it Spam.
