Have you entered it completely? (including @,gmail or others)

Customer Replay

No, the actual email address has gone missing, only what I wrote is left

Please go to your email address and try to find an email from this sender. It should contain their full email address. Copy and paste it following the instructions above.

Customer Replay

I got it back with a duplicate page, but I don't know what the red symbol is in the middle of the address. When I tied to copy and paste it, it then disappeared. Can you take over and try for me.?

Unfortunately, we cannot do this for you. We can only provide instructions via chat. Please tell us the name of the site from which the letters come or share a link to it.
And we will try to find their active e-mail.

Customer Replay

Can I send the link to you?

Yes, sure.

Customer Replay

You can send it right here.

Customer Replay

Please, open this site and copy the link on the top of the page. Then just paste it in the message box in our chat.
Also you can just provide me with the name of this website and i will try to find it.

Customer Replay

don't know how to do this, if you give your email address I know how to send it to you.

We can transfer our correspondence to email. I will send you an email now and you can send a link in response to it.

Customer Replay

*****@rice.resourucenature.com

  1. Click the Settings icon. | click More Settings. .
  2. Click Security and Privacy.
  3. Under "Blocked addresses", click the Add button.
  4. Enter the email address *****@rice.resourucenature.com

Customer Replay

but I don't know what the red symbol is

Try to enter this e-mail,please.

Customer Replay

It says blocked sender added

So,it`s done.Now you will not receive emails from this sender.
Do you have any additional questions I can help you with?

Customer Replay

Ok. what about my original error that reported my email address by mistake as phishing.

Most likely, ymail did not take this into account, since in order to block an account, etc. a large number of complaints are needed.
Please tell me, now you cannot send an email on your behalf or do emails on your behalf end up in spam?

Customer Replay

OK lets hope so. Not sure what you mean. should I send an email to myself to check?

Yes, you can. But most likely everything is okay.

Customer Replay

I just sent an email to myself successfully

Customer Replay

Thank you.

I’m glad I was able to get that sorted out for you. Is there anything else I can assist you with today?

Customer Replay

No thank you.

Thank you for choosing our service!
If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to contact us anytime.

Customer Replay
