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

We receive email that is selling or providing information we have no interest in. We send it to spam, but more and more come in each day and while they go to spam, we get 100's of these types of emails in a day. We should have the option to identify them to AOL and cut them off so that they never reach our address. This would be a great service to your customers.

Put back ability to add screen names and keyword spam block. This used to be provided features. I am paying you now for nothing. I might as well leave AOL so people stop laughing at me for using it. I'm willing to be embarrassed as a AOL user only if you put these features back or I will leave.

You took away keyword spam block. Since I have been blasted with spam I can't stop. I'm a paying Gold customer. You also took away ability to change or add user names. Put these features back or I will cancel you.

How about STOPPING all the spam mail?? I now average 150 or more EVERY DAY. I chatted with someone at AOl who seems to think it's ok as long as most of it goes to the spam folder. However, I have to go in and clean them all out manually as you can't delete all, Has to be done individually. Do the math, 150 a day equals 4500 spam mails EVERY MONTH, Folks, that's 54,000 spam mails a year that AOL claims they can do noting about., that I have to manually delete Yeah, great job AOL. But I see you figured out a wa to put yet another Ad, now you get and ad when you go to switch screen names. AOL is turning itno a shithole, and they clearly don't care about the customers as they never resolve common issues everyone complains about.

Typically, this happens because the sender is spoofing the reply-to address. You can likely get the actual address they're sending from by viewing the message headers and adding the origin address to your block list. Also, stop giving your email address out. I've had the same email address for many years and get zero spam because I'm careful.

We used to be able to block domains, now we cannot block the whole address--i.e contact@dijiasist.com, unkown@unknowdomain, to name a few,please let us have control since you cannot spam on our email...

I keep filing Spam to the Spam Folder as AOL has instructed. Yet, every so-many days, all the addresses are deleted and the **** starts again. Is there any way I can direct "Man with wife and 18 African priests having Sex" to the HQ of AOL??? Kinda tired of this GARBAGE!!!!

I have two AOL user names. One gets an average of about 20 spam emails a day. The other, most often used gets up to 300 spam emails a day. That is very annoying. My gmail account may get 2 or 3 spam emails a week? Why do i have to waste so much time filtering out spam emails from AOL that are filtered out by gmail and never make it to my spam folder?

I'm suddenly getting slammed with hundreds of spam emails in my Spam folder. I've had over 100 a day. This olld issue is new again. Twitter help gave me lots of advice, none of which I could use as I couldn't find the option to Block on my dropdown list on my Windows laptop and on my Mac. It's way too time consuming and futile to add them to to a list under AOL Mail Settings. I didn't see any AOL solutions in the old thread. Can you fix this AOL tech dept? or is this beyond your expertise? TIA
