Sending spam messages is unethical and can lead to negative consequences for both the sender and the recipient. It can damage reputations, invade privacy, and contribute to a larger problem of online harassment and misinformation. Instead of promoting spam, it's more beneficial to engage in honest and respectful communication that fosters trust and positive relationships.

To block a sender and guide them to Junk Mail, first, open an email from the sender you wish to block. Look for options like "Block" or "Mark as Spam" in your email client (this varies by provider). Selecting these options will typically move future emails from that sender to your Junk or Spam folder automatically. Additionally, you can often find a "Junk" or "Spam" option in your email settings to manage blocked senders.

You can choose to use the spam filter in your email. In yahoo, place a check mark in the box corresponding to the message you'd like to report as spam then click the SPAM button on the top menu bar next to the FORWARD button. The steps are similar to move a message to your spam folder in gmail except you click the icon on the menu bar that's the shape of a folder, the list will expand and you can select spam.

Another option is to block the sender or domain.

Also you can click the link to unsubscribe but I would only do that if you know that it's not a virus/malware infected message.

Be sure that it isn't something you've subscribed to because in that case, you will continue to receive the messages.

Almost every email program as well as online email provider has spam options. Usually when you mark a message as spam, your email program will then start to recognize the format of those messages and will mark them as spam in the future for you.

Those are just some of the options available.

Run a full antivirus scan to detect and remove any malicious software that may have been installed. Change your passwords for sensitive accounts and enable two-factor authentication if possible.

You can solve the problem of receiving spam emails to your inbox by rerouting them to your spam folder. Start by marking any emails in your inbox that you consider spam as spam. After doing this a few times, your email system will be better at knowing what you consider spam.

To skip a spam bot, you can implement CAPTCHA challenges that require human interaction, such as solving puzzles or identifying images. Additionally, using honeypots—hidden fields that only bots would fill out—can help filter out automated submissions. Regularly updating your filtering algorithms and employing machine learning to recognize patterns associated with spam can also enhance your defenses against bots.
