this is the way to block txt that come through to your tmomail.net email address for your phone, this has always been available, but this does not block sms or instant messages from coming through

tmobileman, have you heard a specific date when T-Mobile plans to implement this new text blocking feature (in whatever capacity in blocks messages)?

last update we heard was hopefully by start to mid 3rd quarter, it an update to our billing system, we have the way to block the feature but we just haven't come up with a way to block the billing, what happens now is that if the feature is disabled instead of the sms billing for standard rates, it bills as min overage difference of usually .25 cents, from .15 to .40 so that is why we don't disable the feature for now
