By going to the filter screen within the mail program that you use, you can specify what to do with certain emails that get sent to you. You can have them go to a mailbox that you create based on the sender. You can have emails sent directly to your trash if the email contains certain words or phrases. Or you can stop the email from ever being downloaded to your email program.
