Block or unblock sender on Mail Controls with AOL WebSuite Basic version

You can use the Mail Controls to block e-mail from a specific e-mail address or domain. Or if you accidentally blocked an e-mail address or domain, you can remove that e-mail address or domain from your block list.

Note: A domain is the part of the e-mail address after the @ symbol. For example, if the e-mail address is address@aol.com, aol.com® would be the domain.
