Gmail For Android Gets Block Senders And Unsubscribe Option

By -

Google has introduced two new features for Gmail. The new block feature lets you block specific email addresses and the unsubscribe option will enable you to opt out of eligible mailing lists directly from the Gmail app, which comes handy for unnecessary newsletters. Once you block someone, future emails from them will directly go to spam folder, skipping inbox, but you can unblock them anytime from the Settings.

Both these can be enabled from the option in the menu inside an email. The block option will be available for the web starting today, and will roll out for Android over the next week. The unsubscribe option that is already live on the web is now available for Android.

These are definitely handy features for the Gmail app. Google did not announce when these new features will be available for the Gmail app for iPhone.

Allowing your phone to ring during special events. Turning your cell phone off or on silent when entering a special event needs to become second nature. If you are goin...

If dreams are the royal road to the unconscious, as Freud claimed, then that route may be a highway full of tortuous twists and turns—leading nowhere. But it affords some spectacular vistas along the way. By turns, dreams have been deemed prophecies of the future, full of meaning—if only someone could figure out what it is—or the effluence of nerve cells randomly unwinding from a busy day. Once considered a hallmark of the periodic surges of brain activity known as rapid-eye-movement sleep, dreaming now seems somewhat less bundled up; at least 25 percent of dreams are scattered through other parts of the night. Dreaming has been seen as critical for learning, or at least important for solving problems—or as nice but unnecessary. It’s an emblem of mental illness—or a safety shield deflecting it. The newest switchback on dreams comes from South African neuroscientist Mark Solms. Maybe, says Solms, we’ve been confusing cause and effect. Dreams, h...
