You can block as many as 15 email addresses, text names and domains. The information you block will prevent incoming texts, pictures and video messages. If you have more than five sources you would like to block, click, “Block Another Contact,” to add more. If you would like to block all messages from any sender, you can do so in the “Message Blocking” preferences section at the bottom of the page.
