Spam has long been a major enemy of email users, and various
attempts have been made to avoid the risk of spam. Intending to clean the email
inbox, Google launches new features called "Block Sender" and
"Unsubscribe" for Gmail application of Android version.
As the name implies, "Block Sender" feature serves to block
specific email addresses that often send spam emails, phishing or the like. The
email addresses that have been entered to the block list will automatically be
moved to the spam folder.
This feature is easy to use, you only need to open the email
that you find annoying, and then tap the menu button (three dots) and there you
will see the option of Block "Sender name". But if necessary, you can
unblock from setting panel.
The "Unsubscribe" feature is also very useful.
This feature helps the users to unsubscribe from the mailing list of the group,
e-commerce, or services without having to access the main website.
To use the "Unsubscribe" feature you only need to
open the email, tap the menu button (three dots), and then tap Unsubscribe.

Android and also the Web version, while the Unsubscribe feature is applied only
