The amount of spam and spam that we can receive in our Gmail account can be really overwhelming. In my case, there is nothing more annoying than receiving constant e-mails, coming from the same sender who does not want to read any of their messages. To avoid this type of situation, I asked myself if Gmail allows to automatically delete all emails from a specific sender.

By default, Gmail doesn’t offer any specific features that allow you to automatically delete emails from a specific sender. However, this does not mean that we cannot carry out this task, what happens is that we will have to use the filters function to achieve it.
Maintaining an orderly inbox is something really complicated, especially if we use our email account to subscribe or create user accounts on different platforms or services. In many cases, this action will give the platform permission to send you informative emails that in most cases you do not want to receive.
As we have mentioned, Gmail allows you to create filters to filter emails from a specific sender and whose messages have a series of criteria specified by you.
With that said, below we want to show you step by step how to automatically delete emails from a specific sender in Gmail:
