How to stop junk email coming through? (avtarjobs.com)

I search avtarjobs and i can't find anything about it yet i keep getting emails from newsletter@avtarjobs.com. I keep sending these to my (gmail) junk folder but they keep making their way through.


I used to click unsubscribe to these kinds of things but then i don't bother any more as i wonder if doing that actually works or whether it is just a way of confirming your email is active and then they hit you with 1000 more emails.

    Blocking here too - I never click the unsubscribe link on spam emails. I either block the sender, or wait until they come up with a phrase that would never enter my email under normal circumstances & block that

    Why am I in this handcart and where are we going ?
  • Thanks. I didn't know you could block a specific @. Just did a quick google search on it & got it blocked. Hopefully it works.
