About This Feature

Overview

Black and White List helps you manage which sender addresses and domains are allowed or blocked in WPS Mail, so you can reduce unwanted email and avoid missing important messages.

Core capabilities include:

  • Quickly add a sender to the blacklist from the message list, and move related messages to the Junk folder.

Capability SummarySupports quickly adding a sender to the blacklist from the message list. Also supports manually adding or removing email addresses and domains in separate blacklist and allowlist settings.Outlook supports blocked senders, blocked domains, and safe senders in Junk email settings. Messages from blocked senders are moved to the Junk Email folder.Gmail lets you block a sender and review or unblock entries in Filters and Blocked Addresses. For trusted senders, Gmail relies more on contacts or filters to keep valid mail out of Spam.Notion Mail-related official help supports block and unblock sender through Mail connections, but blocked senders from Gmail do not sync into Notion Mail, and this is not presented as a standard standalone blacklist and allowlist settings page.Adobe Acrobat Sign does not provide a standard personal mailbox blacklist and allowlist management page. Its official guidance focuses on adding notification sender addresses to a safe list so system emails can be received.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS supports both blacklist and allowlist management, with support for both email addresses and domains. Distinct: You can act from the message list or maintain rules centrally in settings.Compared with WPS: Outlook also supports blocked and safe sender management, but entry points and support details vary by Outlook version and account type.Compared with WPS: Gmail has a clear sender-blocking flow, but allowlist behavior depends more on contacts or filters instead of a dedicated allowlist page.Compared with WPS: Notion Mail-related controls are more tied to connected workflows and automation, with clearer sync boundaries for blocked senders.Compared with WPS: Adobe's official guidance is centered on notification deliverability rather than full mailbox blacklist and allowlist management.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to directly maintain both allow and block rules inside a mail workflow, WPS Black and White List fits everyday mailbox management well. Outlook and Gmail also cover sender blocking and junk-mail handling, while Notion and Adobe focus more on connected workflows or notification delivery support.
