SPAM has been overwhelming as of late.

The current blocking system works for people who make comments because you block everything. But the blocking system for spam does not work at all! FIX IT!!!!!!

Your selection to target spam, which is not spam, and to make spam when it is legitimate emails has created a loss of timely emails and lost vital information. I'm paying a monthly fee for garbage. I'm ready to discontinue service without prompt modification of your spam policy.

spam - I checked off, only allow email from those in my contact list. That doesn't worth a hill of beans. Got more spam now than ever. 30 spam emails a day, list to block isn't long enough. I'd have to remove a site to add a new new. Disgusting

Hi team. I just discovered, and my friendly AOL tech confirmed, that on the email page where the folders are listed on the left column of the page, the counter next the the Spam heading was recently removed! I actually use that function to monitor my spam folder at a quick glance. I can understand making changes, but why remove a useable function when it all it is is a little piece of information? At least make it optional to remove.
Thanks. -

Ahhh, you know that AOL is doing NOTHING to reduce spam ads...they get PAID for all of them...AOL is a total tool and ONLY cares about their bottom line, i.e., $$$$$$$$

There should be a way to block spam, without having to add sites you want to your contact list.

I've been receiving more & more spam emails & the one thing they all have in common is a generic "pic" is placed where the Spam box is located in front of my messages so I wanted to make sure aol was aware of this..

The good news is most unwanted advertising is going to my span file. The bad news is I have to sift thru hundreds of spam each week, because some things which go to spam is legitimate email. The "unsubcribe" option is a joke. Is there anyway to stop ALL spam ever coming to my computer? If it starts with GoldWild@ or Stayathome@? There are hundreds of different variations of spam which start with these. And I am not interested in any of them.

New spam filter is a disaster!!! It places spam in my email folder and categorizes more than half of my desired email as spam. I now have to regularly go into the spam folder and fish out my desired emails and send them to my in box. Please reinstate the old spam filter. The new one does NOT work as intended!!!

I am being bombarded with spam from advertisers that start with:
- GoldWild
- mail@
- mail@stayhome
- stayathome@I keep unsubscribing but this is not stopping them. AOL needs to develop a procedure where we can unsubscribe thru AOL, so it not only doesn't go to "spam" but never gets anywhere. Taking too long to monitor the mail which goes to spam, because some things are not spam. Going thru the motions on "unsubcribe" is a joke.

Find a way to block all the unsolicited ads before they even get to the Spam file. For the last few weeks, have received a rash of junk. They have a common name like, "mail @.....". or "stayathome@.....". The last the worst. Taking forever to go thru the "unsubscribe" routine. And does not seem to be working, even after the 10 day warning. I want any variation that starts with "stayat home" to be blocked before it gets to Spam file. Takes too long to survey to see if anything should not be in Spam.

Make your spam blocker work. I have unsubscribed to dozens of spam emails by doing it the way you say, i.e., open the email then hit "spam," then hit "unsubscribe." I often get a message like "Oops, something has gone wrong, but, don't worry, all future emails from this address will go to trash or spam." Not one has actually worked.
