If the threat is of a personal nature, I'd suggest calling his ISP and complaining. Simply blocking him is not protection enough, if he intends to make good on his threats. The moment he becomes personal, that is if you know him and he is bent on doing harm to you then you do need to go beyond internet means to make sure that you are protected.

If all it is, is a mass mail/hoax or trivial then yeah blocking him would simply not have his emails come to your eyes. (Mind you, he can still email you).

Analyze the threat posed and the situation before you choose your defense.

it sounds like the threat is personal. This is just a suggestion: Save these e-mails. You may need them later in COURT.
