  1. "YOU'VE GOT MAIL" still not fixed. WHY?

    "YOU'VE GOT MAIL" still not fixed, WHY?. Can not believe AOL can not fix this problem. You posted the 'YOU'VE GOT MAIL" was fixed BUT may no work all the time, I am paying to have good service but it looks like AOL doesn't care about their PAIED costumers anymore. In the future PLEASE don't say an issue is fixed but MAY NOT WORK ALL the time, STOP the double talk and FIX THE **** THING.

    You can view your starred emails by using the mail type drop down at the top of the mailbox, or click on the blue Views folder on the mailbox.


    To star a specific mail, you can simply click on the star on the mailbox next to the message you wish to star.

  12. Select or highlight next email after I read it.

    When I am reading my emails, it used to automatically highlight or select the next email without manually doing it. Please bring that back! Very inconvenient! Thanks

  15. AOL Desktop Gold

    The "You've Got Mail" notification sound was not functioning well.

    The deletion of emails needs to be done manually since the highlight for the selection of email is not jumping through the next email when it is triggered.

    AOL Support Team advised that this is because of the newest update.

  17. Tool issue

    Every time I try to permanently delete an email through the trash it will still show that there is emails inside. I did the basic troubleshooting like uninstall and reinstalling the app. Please fix this kind of issue. It's been going on for a week now.

  18. When deleting emails, I get Error msg EC-4007. Every time. Tried your chat with a tech but he was unable to help. Get no reply from AOL.

    Get a tech who can help instead of asking the same question over and over. Wanted my phone # to help with my problem; gave it to him and his reply was "sorry, I cannot call that #"...then why ask for it? Incompetent
