Is there a way to stop a player from sending me in-game mail?

Hello all,

I half remember there use to be a way to permentely block another player from sending my character mail but I cannot find out how. Does that feature still exist? The problem is that a character in game keeps sening some of my characters advertisements in the mail, I report them every time they do and it docent help. I remember in the past there was a way to permentely block a player from sending mail but cannot fire it out - does that option even still exist?

Thanks for any help :slight_smile:

Try adding them to your friends list then putting thme on ignore you should also be able to report them.

Putting them on ignore will hide the mail, but will not block them from mailing you.

Putting them on /ignore should also make their mails invisible to you.

Just to point it out, to hopefully be helpful down the line; if you plan to move servers for whatever reason, make sure to unignore them to ensure any mail that they’ve sent gone bad.

I also received a type of email containing advertising. I reported it.

How do I do that? I cannot “see” the player, only their mail

I report them every - single - day - for the past week and I’m still getting advertisement mail every day. I would like to know how/if I can block (ignore) this user who is sending me this in-game spam mail.

Also, its not like their name is easy to understand because they just rolled their fingers across the keyboard like ;pdoy8f;hbw.erkyuhs.abo

Type /ignore charactername-realmname

Thank you, I tried the " /ignore (user name) " so we’ll see if it comes up again tomorrow :crossed_fingers:

Question is it a player or blizzard in there name.

Putting on ignore does not block them from sending mail, just makes it invisible.

That may cause an issue if you are wanting to do character services such as server transfer or faction change, as they need an empty mailbox.

You’d simply need to unblock the character temporarily and delete the mail.

But if you’re not planning on doing a service, then it shouldn’t affect anything and happy spam-free mailbox to you!

Edit: oops, Zenjy had this point covered and I missed that post.
