Currently receiving SPAM texts from E-mail address with increasing volumes of them happening , is there a way to stop this from continuing? As it is now you can only block up to 15 email address which is useless since the Spammers change numbers often and it will b e a matter of weeks before the maximum number  is reached. 
If we could simply block email texts like we can numbers that would be good but that option is not available.
