Mine is set at "only recieve emails from people in my address book"

Other emails go to "suspected spam" which I can chack and move if necessary.

The third level is "known spam" which is very good at catching the obvious spam.

Did you call tech support at AOL? maybe the setting got moved or changed with an update and you just need to re-set it. Seems weird that they would just do away with spam settings altogether and not expect to loose customers.
