Are you trying to block spam e-mails? If so, blocking by the sender's
e-mail address is futile. They change their bogus e-mail address every
time they spew their crap. You end up wasting your time and disk space
adding more and more e-mail addresses to the block list of which NONE of
them will match on the spammer's bogus e-mail address the next time they
target your mailbox. I've seen users fill up their blocklist with 3000
e-mail addresses which are completely worthless against preventing spam
delivery.

Blocking by e-mail address only works for a few senders who always use
the same e-mail address.
