I see on the top right there is a CTRL F prompt to filter an email. If I highlite the email and key that, will emails from that sender be blocked?

In most software, including Thunderbird, the CTRL-F key combination opens the Find dialogue box.
Filters in email client software are used to redirect incoming mail from the Inbox to a different folder. You can access Filters from the Tools pull-down menu. For example, any mail coming to me from elderly.com is redirected to a books+music folder that I created in my Thunderbird. So, yes, you could use a filter to redirect incoming mail from a particular party to the Trash folder. You can also click on the Junk button on the offending email and have it and all future email from that party sent to the Junk folder. You can learn more about using Filters and Junk Controls from the Help menu. HTH.
