just upgraded to win 10, not sure I like it. I'm a senior and find it confusing sometimes when things change. how can I block unwanted emails from windows 10? I see no folder to click on to do this.

do you mean SPAM or do you want to block senders?

You can't block senders yet in the Win 10 mail app: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-security/block-email-senders-in-windows-10/f1f9bb67-2649-4554-8c4d-4d93a60307e4

OMG, you can't block SPAM either: http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/topic/360286-any-way-to-block-spam-on-windows-10-mail/

why release an email app that doesn't block either of those??

I guess I would have noticed this if I didn't still use Gmail web client. I can't think of an alternative, Windows Live Mail still works on win 10 but no guarantees that will continue
