    I may not be getting the point here but I've recently started getting spam emails.

    Select the email, right click brings up the list above, Block, and you get a second option to Block sender.

    A lot of spam has gmail.com as the tag. A lot come from the same address.
    If you block sender you are blocking a lot of spam you will never see,  in one go.
    You only have to do this occasionally then 
    I've been trying this method for a few days and it has reduced the spam quite a lit. Down from at least 15 a day to around 4 currently. That's my method for now. Thanks to everyone who replied.
