  4. Mail Default Settings

    I read my mail from top to bottom then arrive at the delete option and after deleting I've elected the option to open the next mail item. Now when the next item opens, its at the bottom of the new mail. Doesn't it make sense for the default to be open at the top/beginning of the mail. Why did AOL change the cursor placement to default to the last position? Opening a mail item in the middle or bottom of the message is just nonsensical. Please make it so opening an email opens at the beginning of the email OR…

  20. I cannot drag one of the four corners of the window. It doesn't move. Therefor I canno

    When opening the mailbox the page is to large. It takes up the whole screen and you cant read it without moving the sidebar up & down and from left to right.

    It's so big that you can't read the context of the email without using the inner sidebar at the bottom of the email.

    I cannot drag one of the four corners of the window. It doesn't move. Therefor I cannot use the “Save Window Size and Position” from the drop-down menu.

    Changing the screen resolution does not help.
