PLEASE!!!!! I'M BEGGING YOU!!
Make a spam blocker option. I'm a premium member and lately I get several spam texts a day that I have to manually block. It's like if they could just automatically be blocked since they show up as an email address and not a phone number. Please make this a feature. These are driving me insane

I put it on Twitter too... feel free to add there, it might get better visibility, I kinda wonder if Uservoice is where Textra suggestions go to die...

Below are a series of spam messages I've received like this over the past month or so. This NEEDS to be addressed! Blocklisting is grossly insufficient, because every message comes from a new address.
To render addresses and URLs unclickable, and obfuscate my number, I've made the following replacements:
* colons (:) with equals signs (=)
* periods (.) with asterisks (*)
* my actual phone number with <my_phone_number>
but these are otherwise unaltered including formatting, spacing, spurious characters, etc.[11/26/21 17:43] 12454@panix*com: - / HOME DEPOT
