Blocking email

How do I block someone's mail and generate an automatic notification to them
that they've been blocked? I know you can do this with AOL, but I'm not sure
it can be accomplished in Outlook.

Add them to the Blocked Senders list for OL 2003/2007 or to the Junk Senders
list for OL 2002 and earlier.
and generate an automatic notification to them that they've been blocked?

Pointless.

If you have told the sender that you do not want any further e-mails
from them and they have not complied, why the hell would you believe
that sending back an auto-response to them will change their behavior?

If you are using the Blocked Senders list to get rid of spam, it won't
work. Spammers change their e-mail address every time they spew their
crap.

Just add it to your Blocked List or create a delete rule. You cannot bounce
messages with a mail client like a server does. All attempts will result
sending just a normal email and you are only adding to the
junk-email-messages issue.
