Restore the old spam settings. Now we only have one setting.
First you took away stationery and vast choice of fonts, emojis, etc. Then you changed how mail is set up (from new, old, sent, spam, deleted mail to current style) and the Spam settings from numerous choices to only one (blocked). it seems the longer we continue to PAY for AOL Gold, the less we are getting for our money. I see by the Feedback that I'm far from alone in feeling AOL Gold does not seem "golden" to your PAYING customers.
Hey,
Wanted to let you all know that you now have the ability to block mail from unwanted senders. Please click the link here to learn more: https://help.aol.com/articles/keep-your-inbox-clean-by-blocking-unwanted-mail-in-aol-desktop-gold

To repeat, spam emails that keep coming in after I delete them, engineer the program to
reject them, not appearing to me, and notice to sender, "rejected'.... -
JOHN DUVAL commented
Engineer the spam email to give me an option to exercise an option that will reject all previous spam email that reappears with a message to
sender: "rejected'.....That will save me daily time of deleting hundreds of spam email. thanks -

A wild card block is badly needed. I get 20-30 spams a day all with emails that differ only in the last few characters.

I note that spammers vary their userid, but not the site it's from.
ADD "*" for ANY userid from the given site name.Add an option to add the userid@sitename to the "block emails from" list

I get a TON of spam on a daily basis from 114916389@addtocartnow. The only thing that changes is the combo of just 5 letters or numbers like -jrf6s, -288or, -25ba5 all end with .co.uk Can't you just block any/everything from 114916389@addtocartnow instead of me and I'm sure many others having to block each individual piece that comes through?

Why am I getting all this spam everyday

Can't you blacklist emails addresses that are so blatantly spamming?! If I got 40 within a 48 hour period, how many other people did too?! There seems to be a real uptick in spam -- I wish you could get ahead of it somehow. Let customers report severe abusers for blacklisting maybe?

unknownsender@unknowndomain spam. These emails always go to to the Spam folder and you can't block them because there isn't an actual email address associated with it. Why doesn't AOL automatically block anything that comes in with out an actual email address?

These are all about watching somebodys wife riding a well hung dude or some female wanting to share hot photos. This is obvious trash, please quit sending it through.

I get SPAM from UnknownSender@UnknownDomain and I cannot block it because its an invalid address. Why in the world dont you (AOL) stop this kind of obvious SPAM?

AOL - I know the various ways to deal with spam on my end, but YOU NEED to HELP US and DEAL WITH THE SPAM on YOUR END and BEFORE IT HITS OUR ACCOUNTS
about 200 a day now and it is growing!!!
Most- a very high percentage of the spam starts
A@ and the varied other names.
YOU CAN JUST STOP - REFUSE TO RECEIVE - BLOCK all emails coming in that have the A@ some name or entity in the title.
I do ot and talking to others get any legit emails starting A@ so block all of these and help rather than bombard your users with spam.'
Sure these senders may change to B@ or G@ or any other address they use, but you know what they are and you can block these from AOL rather as stated have all of your users continually having to clear the many spam emails we are getting. -

All of a sudden, I am getting a lot of SPAM in my regular mail...is something wrong with McAfee?

C Waywood commented
I am getting over 100 spam emails per day. The block feature doesn't work, as they just change 1 letter in their address. Why can't we block domains (like .uk) or words (like mcafee or elongation or dog barking) like we were able to do before? And why as a company can you not filter this spam?
-
Jerry Longden commented
Any and all deleted SPAM and "Report SPAM" Email addresses should automatically go to and be permanently stored in the AOL "Block Email from addresses I specify" file. You'd think this would have been an added feature years ago, but noooo, they just continue the AOL SPAM avalanche.

Kathryn Jolowicz commented
We need a safe sender feature so that AOL does not put a wanted email into spam when they feel like it, from one day to the next!!! Receiving that email for years, then suddenly into spam. WHY??
Happen with family emails all the time. WHY??? Old AOL was better and safer. -
Kathryn Jolowicz commented
My wanted emails which I use on a daily basis for years often go into spam, blocking me from the wanted emails. Do you have a safe sender feature as the other browsers do? Or a "do not spam" feature for wanted emails, which should never be put into spam??? PLEASE HELP! I have not idea they are put there since I have been getting them!!! How does one know that you have put them in there when I have been receiving them????

Each email address must be entered separately to the block list, either by typing the address in the block list or by right clicking on the email and then clicking on the add to the block list. If you get 30 or more emails to be block each day, that can take lot of time because you have to deal with each one individually. Senders can make changes to their addresses to get around blocked mail. Can't this process be improved by the AOL team or am I just not doing it right?
