block domain
Ability to Block Domains!!!! This is a basic function and should be just as easy as blocking an email.

The ability to block domains for spam mitigation. is a critical feature that is not provided. Because AOL does not perform e-mail authentication, you are subjected to a large amount of spam.

Wildcards when blocking is critical. With only 1,000 spots to block some of these domains will take up my entire block list. With SPAM the way it is these days I need to block an entire domain but wildcards don't seem to work. Some of the SPAM subject lines are disgustingly filthy, those words should be blocked. Filters don't block anything, my SPAM folder gets thousands of gross entries a week. Why can't I filter some words directly to a block list?

I need to block an entire domain @gendafilem.nl from sending the HUNDREDS of spam emails every week rather than blocking each email address from that domain. With only 1,000 available blocks they will fill my block list and keep going by changing one letter or number in their long string of address before the domain. I want to stop this domain from even getting in my spam folder, I want to block it completely. Why can't I use a wildcard and stop them?

why can't you block a domain? like @gendafilem.nl I see others have posted similar comments but nothing ever changes! I don't even see any responses from AOL.

so sick of blocking individual emails when all their junk originates from the same domain.

Why is there no ability to block email "domains" - (eg. @hellomag.com). Getting many daily spams from this email domain with differnt beginning names, and reached 1,000 specific blocked email addresses long toime ago. All other email software allows you to do it.

Give us better service by blocking domains and we'll click your ads which now block more and more of my email.

My blocked list is FULL from a majority of spam from ONE domain. Bring back blocking of domains.

Yes! We used to be able to block entire domains and now we can't. Ridiculous! And so are your "trusted senders"! They are responsible for at least half of the spam in my spam folder. Why are you letting those through?

AOL does NOT care about its customers. Why limit spam blocking to 1000? That's basically one month. And also, why not be able to block by domain and domain ending?
After 30 years, this service is still stuck in 1998. Terrible -

I agree that blocking a domain is critical! I am still a paying customer after 30 years. 20 to 50 spams a day, most from the same fake domain, is totally unacceptable. It is about to be 2026 and AOL is not listening to its' customers. Perhaps it is time to be sold to someone who cares about customer service.

Please place a block on domain Spam such as @juliesmomentsofgrace.com as I receive
hundreds of emails every day from this source. -

Blocking full domains is one of those basics that every mail system should handle cleanly, especially nowadays. Workarounds with filters feel like duct tape. I’ve ended up using a mix of custom rules and aliases just to keep junk under control. It reminds me of reading www.fightmatrix.com/2025/08/20/who-was-the-first-double-champ-in-ufc-history-the-history-of-champ-champs/ and wondering why simple questions somehow need five layers of explanation before you get a straight answer.

If an email contains "casino" we must be able to block an email that contains that word we do have filters but i have these set up but they dont seem to work i still get 30 - 40 a day spam from casino's every one from a different email they change it each time, so we need to filter via a word that works is needed

I agree with everyone else that having a max capacity of just 1000 for blocked emails is not enough. AOL has been in business for how long? I have had my AOL email address for almost 30 years. You have to be better than this. Like someone else suggested let us have the ability to block domain addresses. What are we paying you for?

I am getting 50+ emails per day from three domains ending in .nl and now they changed it to .info - same name just the change after the dot. It is so aggravating, and I understand you want people to pay for AOL but unless you correct this problem, you simply are not worth anything. I've been on AOL for many years, and we had domain blocking when I started. I guess you don't care. My wife just changed to Gmail, and she said her email can go to ****. She's notified all her accounts of the change. I want to stay, but I need this fixed back to how it was originally.
Why you ever changed it is beyond me. -

Also, when I do click on ‘Security and Privacy’ under settings tab, it does not allow me to ADD any emails to be blocked…another major issue….it doesn’t work…NO blocking available.
