Is there any way to do it? I can't seem to find a way. Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question.

Go to options (at the extreme right on the same plane as the "home", "inbox", etc... line - at least on my set-up), then mail, then junk mail, block senders.

Ah yes, I see it, thank you very much. I wonder why it isn't more obvious?

Unfortunately you can't block entire domains as I remember, so all Spammingfucktard000@spamfriendlydomain.biz has to do is increment the 000 one unit or add another digit. Hotmail allows only around 250 blocked addresses too. MS also makes a point of publishing free Hotmail addresses on Infospace.com as well, essentially hanging Hotmailers out to dry until they start paying up.

Is there a way to do it (or auto-delete emails from an address/domain) in g-mail?

Actually hotmail lets me block domains.
(I still have a hotmail account because it's grandfathered for reply alerts to this site and I am not allowed to change it -_-)

PM a mod. I changed mine.
