Is there a way to block call, sms, email from certain contacts ?
or send a automatic instant response to that caller / emailer?

Let me know thanks in advance

I don't think you can block calls or sms from particular people. You can filter email though.

For any call or SMS blocking you will need to contact your cellular carrier. You can create email filters to block email.

How do I filter ? Please let me know in simple steps.

Thanks

I use Sprint and to dial individual numbers, punching *82 before the number will unblock and allow the receiver to see your phone number if you have caller id blocking normally.

There must be a way, without encoding *82 into each phone number within the address book, to permanently unblock numbers... like say for family member numbers, work numbers... and coding certain contacts that way.

Does anybody know?! Thanks in advance.

if you are looking to block certain numbers from being able to call you then try berryblocker 411, you can get this from handango.
