I created a new 'filter folder' named 'Blocked List'. How do I add sender email addresses to folder OR do I have to create a filter folder for each senders email address?

How do unwanted messages get into your "filter folder"? I'm guessing you have set up a Message Filter to do this.

If so, you add the addresses to the filter. You don't need to do anything with the folder itself.

Make sure you set the filter to "match any" - it defaults to "match all".
