Thanks for your reply. I worked out how to block, what
I was after was was how to remove people from the block
list as right click delete is grey and disabled

Martin,
I don't believe there is a way to delete entries in the 'Blocked' list
until these pests delete your address from their computers.
I was plagued with this problem at one time, eventually these people
want to clean up their work space and delete your name from their
computer. At this point if you right click on their names the
'Delete' entry should be in bold print and if you left click on
'Delete' they should disappear from your list.

Thanks for the tip. Thought it was on my machine

Don't know why they want to add me to their book anyway?

Martin,
For the same reason that spammers keep sending unsolicited e-mails.
Some of them are from Commercial businesses, they think that they are
getting free advertising for their wares or services. Personally I
commit these unsolicited e-mails straight to the Re-Cycle Bin without
reading them. In any case I have a rule to never purchase from
someone unless I have sought them out.
