In today's digital era, educational institutions must efficiently manage student email access.  Time-consuming and lacking in bulk processing, traditional email blocking methods cause administrative inefficiencies. This study proposes a Bulk Email Blocking and Unblocking System to automate email access control.  Using a web-based platform with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a Visual Studio backend, administrators can upload Excel files to block or unblock student emails efficiently.  The system has an upload function for multiple files, a dashboard organized by academic year, and a secure admin/user login. Upon upload, student email data is extracted for bulk blocking.  Blocked students receive real-time mobile notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM), detailing their status and reasons.  This automation enhances real-time communication, reduces manual errors, and boosts administrative efficiency.  Compared to manual methods, it ensures faster execution, accuracy, and scalability while being cost-effective.  FCM eliminates SMS cost constraints, making the system more sustainable.  Its seamless integration into institutional frameworks makes it a valuable tool for student email management.
