hows does MSN Messenger block feature work?

I would like to know who is blocked or not blocked by the following situations.
1. I blocked someone on MSN Messenger. Does this also, automatically, block them from sending me an e-mail to my Hotmail address? Are they aware that I blocked them on my end, by them receiving a "u have been blocked message" or some other message? (Is seems they would or they'd keep sending offline messages "thinking" I am getting them).
2. I broke off communication with a couple people...........................well they have, by not replying to my e-mails. I still have them on my list of MSN Messenger friends and when my MSN Messenger is opem I see their "status". Does this mean they do not have "me" blocked yet on their end? Would I know somehow if they blocked me? They are both Hotmail users, they could open a new account or change their user name and then communication would be 100% dead. I'm trying to leave the door open for rectification of the issues but I am not sure who is currently blocked or not blocked, and would either end know it.
