Do you mean delete all posts from a certain email in one or two keystrokes?
Would you mind telling me how? I have yet to figure that out.

Thank you,

Sure --

When you're in your "Mailbox" screen, just click on the top menu that says
"Email Address" --- it is right underneat where it says "new mail" "old Mail"
and "sent Mail".

Clicking on that sorts your mail by email address - if you're in "new mail"
it sorts your new mail.

Now you can select the first email by the address you want to delete. Hold
down the shift key and select that last mail from that address. That selects
all of them.

Click on "delete" -- lower right of mail screen - between "notify AOL" and
"help".

When you're done - click on the top menu where is says "Date" to get the
emails back into chronological order, if you want them that way.

AOL 7.0 --- maybe not in earlier versions, I can't remember.
Not as good as filtering into separate folders like Outlook and Eudora can
do. But..... there ya go. For a long time I had a little add-on program that
I paid $20 for that loaded my aol mail into Outlook -- so I could use all the
great filtering stuff --- but Outlook is so susceptible to viruses that I
decided to get rid of it and live with the AOL mail program.
