Provide wildcard (*) in Domain name
SPAM senders modify the Domain Name and one has to block each one. If AOL allowed the use of wildcards in Domain Name one would use less entries. Get SPAM from same user ID but a modified Domain. When trying to use a wildcard one gets the message "Invalid address".
How about allowing wildcards in Domain Name.

Please allow wildcards in blocked addresses. I've recently started get many spam emails every day almost all of which come from two top-level domains with mutating sub-domains. This makes it difficult to scan the spam folder for misclassified legitimate email. It appears that many other users have the same problem. With wildcards it would be easy to discard these as they arrive, keeping spam folders manageable and even saving storage and further processing.

Why is AOL editing entries to be added as SPAM email for a valid format?
In the past I could enter a entry such as 12345678@*.com.
And some still shows in my block list.
Has the skill level retired? -

If this option was provided, AOL would block SPAM before it enters E-mail. Also, it would reduce the number of entries in the Block List, which benefits AOL (less storage to hold "extra" entries) and the user (less time reporting & blocking)..
