How to Block Receiving an Email in Opera

Opera is a free Web browser and Internet application suite. While Opera is normally known as a Web browser, it also includes an integrated desktop email client. Opera doesn't include an obvious way to block emails from certain senders, but you can block these email messages by adding their email addresses to your spam filter. After you set up the spam filter rule, incoming email messages from the email address are sent straight to your spam folder and blocked from your inbox.
