When I have blocked them, they seem to not be able to email me either.
The documentation from Messenger says that if I delete them from my contact
list, I canâ??t see them, but they can still see when Iâ??m online or not.
Yet if I block them, they can't contact me at all.
It is so important to me that the nag customer doesnâ??t know if Iâ??m home or
not.
That is a privacy issue, but if I block them, it is a financial issue.
