I am receiving e-mails from unwanted sources that do not provide for an unsubscribe link. I would like to block them from my system. Please help.

I have appropriate filters in place. But I want to block specific e-mails from coming into the system.

Then I'm not sure what else you're asking for. Technically you cannot prevent anyone from sending you email messages. Otherwise we wouldn't have a spam problem. You may check with your email provider about filtering capabilities on the server.
