AOL and other groups are attempting a number of solutions to junk email, both legal and technical. Success may very well be far off, due to the scope of the problem. In the meantime, the first step to avoid junk email on AOL is to enable its Spam Filter (available only in Windows AOL 6.0 and later) at Keyword: Mail Controls (see Mail Controls, below for more information). This directs messages AOL believes are junk to a special Spam folder that you can periodically examine and empty.

For example, you can create a filter that looks for "low mortgage rates" and automatically deletes the message.
