Joseph, as you have seem from the list I am not the only one using AOL who sometimes has an empty AOL mailbox. All I can tell you is that I check my mail three times a day, but I get little spam in my AOL mailbox. Maybe the reason is that I don't use my Master AOL email. When I set up my AOL I did not like the master email I chose, so I chose another email and that is the one I use and check. My master email is seldom checked and I no one I know has it BUT if I do check that mailbox it is full of spam and only spam. So changing to a non-master email may help you reduce your AOL spam, but then you have to tell everyone to use the new address and that is likely inconvenient. Mine has been set up that way for so long it does not matter.
