Blocking mail using 'Mail"

I have set up Mail and am using it for a couple of different email addresses.

Mail I designate 'Junk' as well as some other addresses do go into the "Junk' box.

The question is, can I simply block some email addresses so they never 'land' at all?

interesting...I guess as I get more confident with Mail, I can make a rule to automatically delete certain Junk mail..right now too much supposed Junk mail is not really junk mail..

But I did a test, somehow tigerdirect.com keeps getting through...so I created a rule that all mail from tigerdirect gets automatically deleted...

If course someday I will order from them and wonder wtf happened...lol..

SO I have been adding email addresses in a 'rule' and having it automatically deleted..the question is now that I have added about 20 or so addresses, I cannot add more without the window becoming larger than will fit on my screen, as a result I cannot click 'ok',,

Does anyone here use the 'rules' feature as I am trying to know about this?
