Yes, this 1,000 block limit is now an issue for me too. Like others have said, being able to block an entire domain would be better. Other email providers can do this.

Please help.

1000 blocks isn't enough and adding 500 filters doesn't help much. Combine them and put an unlimited number to blocks.

INCREASE block mail from 1000/1000 to much much more, maybe even unlimited.....tired of getting the Same spam email over and over AND over. The block 1000/1000 worked MUCH better than deleting since this doesn't get rid of them and seems to make them worse
FIX IT

fast way to remove email 1000 at a time

That will help the problem! So many spam emails have an enormous number of leading random characters from the same domain that increasing the list to even a million won't get rid of them. A better solution is to use wild cards i.e., an asterisk * to minimize them. Example: *@domain.* Domain can be: com, de, fr, org, info and etc.

This is critical. I am so tired of the same spammers sending multiple junk, some of which is definitely illegal - nude, etc. types.

Just go to whois.com/who is and type in the domain name. Then block the sender for all! Or give me 30,000 to block, that might cover six months worth. Gmail has no problem blocking theirs! Just saying.

I put in a request to AOL Support so their system would recognize wild cards. As an example I get an enormous amount of spam from: @gerdasine.info . In order for AOL to prevent more from them, the email user can alter the address to add an asterisk to the domain, i.e. *@gerdasine.info . Therefore all subsequent emails from them should be deleted automatically going forward.

They will do nothing except welcome in more spam Totally useless. So many complaints about Spam and they do nothing, Time to transition to gmail- nice and simply, no spam, no disgusting ad.

Sick and tired of having to clear blocked addresses every 3-4 months as I reach the 1k max one at a time. SENDERS SHOULD BE NOTIFIED THEY ARE BLOCKED! Millions of scammers may be reduced if they are notified!!!!

I agree with ALL the postings to increase the number of blocked emails. Since AOL is having problems controlling the amount of spam, we users' ability to add to block emails might help the situation.

Please increase it. I could do 1,000 in a month, and that's being kind.

PLEASE INCREASE THE BLOCKED MAIL LIST TO 10,000 OR 100,000 EVEN!! 1,000 IS JUST NOT ENOUGH!!!

What happened to "BLOCK SENDERS"? Please put it back.

The 1000-address limit for blocking spam emails is not effective. I've already reached that limit. At least show us a chronological sort so we can unblock the oldest ones first. If you could allow blocking by domain, that would help minimize the problem -- a particular spammer can just auto generate hundreds of usernames on the same domain so one block instead of hundreds would be more efficient.

Why did you remove-"BLOCK SENDER"? I need this to stop scammers etc.RESTORE IT! STOP MESSING WITH AOL SETTINGS!!

I don't have the Block senders option on my AOL email. When Click on security and privacy I can't block anyone.

AOL Limit to 1000 mail spams is a joke!

I request that you extend the ability to block email senders (especially from the spam folders) at a number far above 1,000 where it appears to be capped currently. Please? It's an excellent feature and really helps to control the large number of ridiculous messages.

I have over 80,000 emails and the majority of those are spam. My blocked senders list is full at 1,000.
