AOl + Spam

January20

I have been using AOL for years, and one of the main reasons has always been the way spam seemed to be dealt with ie: it didn't reach my mail box. However, over the past 2 or 3 weeks I have seen an increase of spam in my email, particularly supposedly from banks. so, I have 2 questions:

1. Any other AOL users have the same experience or is it just me?

2. If it becomes a nuisance and I decide to change my internet provider, which one has got good spam filters? I know nothing about this as I've never had to deal with it!

Thanks

Why don't you just raise the level on your spam filter one notch?
Or switch to something like Gmail, which has excellent filters?

macman, I read your post and thought "how do I do that?" so I investigated and have just done that. Thank you!
What didn't I think of doing that myself? I'm so silly sometimes!
