Declining Messages

The AIM service provides privacy features so you can control who contacts you. If another AIM 
user sends you annnoying or offensive messages, you can decline to receive further messages 
from that user. 

The declined user is prevented from sending you messages during the current session only. The 
user will be able to send you messages again the next time you sign on, or if you send the user a 
message during the session that you declined them. 

Tip:

To permanently block an AIM user from sending you messages, use the 
AIM desktop application.
