Windows 10: Blocking senders

Windows Mail is a backward step leaving my Inbox being awash with spam. Why is there no easy to use block senders facility as previous? It makes a mockery of progress... stop going backwards and please indicate that this facility will be restored as default.

Blocked senders list

I think I may have blocked a sender in error.

Where is the blocked senders list, and how can I unblock if an error has been made?

Thanks for your help!
