If I block you, you can't send it.

That's the way it should be. Otherwise there would be spam.

If you don't block me, does it go into the Other folder where it might not get read?

You need to get into this. Create 2 accounts and try what you will. Your top post reeks of what a mass mailing spammer would try to do. If you set it to private, it means you don't want it.
