Please expand the block senders list to more than 1000. I have so many spam emails that I want to block.

    I agree! And, really block them, I get a lot of repeat from: email addresses...

  • D.M. KANE commented  ·   ·  Report

    PLEASE EXPAND the limit!! Help decrease spam for all of us!

    I delete dozens a day but it doesn't slow down. Many are sexually oriented. I never click any of them - too dangerous.

    please provide an update on this critical issue. I see that there are several similar users who have the same issue, however, it is titled slightly different. I also called in for a status update and your representative hung up the phone before I was able to speak to anyone.

    If I only received spam from one thousand people...I'd have no issue with the cap. But I get spam from MILLIONS...no exaggeration, MILLIONS of email address. You really need to up the amount we can block.

    I agree with the previous posts.
    AOL, please increase your limit to "blocked senders".
    The number of unwanted email I get is ridiculous.
    I actually PAY for your "service", so listen to what your users are saying!

    An option for AOL is to Provide wildcard (*) in Domain name.
    This option would reduce the number of entries in the Block List,
    which benefits both AOL (less storage to hold "extra" entries)
    and the user (less time reporting & blocking).

    I am at 1039 blocks but I get so much spam that it cripples my ability to locate work related emails.
    Please increase it to unlimited or atleast 1,000,000.

    comment faire pour me débarrasser de ce type de msg dans mes spams, obligé quand même de vérifier si dans le tas il n'y aurait pas un de bon .... ce soir, alors que ce matin c'était ok j'avais :
    new-offer-idxxxxxx@nom x étant un chiffre
    ce soir il y en avait plus de vingt !!! et si pendant deux jours je ne regarde pas ...je ne vous dis pas la panique pour trier le bon du mauvais ... c'est très dommage de ne pouvoir vous joindre une copie écran ou un simple coller d'un mail .... Ne peut-on rien faire pour que ce genre de mails disparaissent à tout jamais des spams et définitivement .... ou nous donner un moyen de trier ... merci de votre réponse désolé je suis français et votre site en anglais donc pas trop compris votre page

    Do you really think continuing to not address these emails is helpful to your customers. 1000's of spam emails. The latest received:

    30-second “erection muscle” trick gets you hard-as-a-rock

  • Matt Boos commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes I am blocking 20+ per day. The feature isn't working anymore and they keep coming!

  • BLAKE SIBLA commented  ·   ·  Report

    I did not know there was a limit to 'blocked senders.' I have apparently reached that limit and this valuable and appreciated feature no longer works :-( Please expand this feature. Thank you.

  • KENNETH SLOTKOWSKI commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree! The spam filter needs to allow wildcards, as an example: newslettersforname@* or newslettersfor*@*. This would eliminate nearly 99% of my spam!!!

    we need to be able to block spam mail, that is in the spam box
