I don't like having to agree to delete an e-mail. It's one step that is annoying.

In order to disable the prompt, please follow these steps:
1. Open the AOL Desktop Gold and sign in.
2. Click on the ‘Mail’ menu on the top left.
3. Select ‘Mail Settings’ from the drop-down menu.
4. Uncheck ‘Confirm before deleting items’, and close the window (changes are saved automatically).

RETURN THE DELETE FUNCTION BACK TO WHAT IT WAS BEFORE. IT TAKES TO LONG TO INDIVISUALY DELETE EACH AND EVERY EMAIL AND CLEAR OUT THE THE OLD MAIL. AND JUNK MAIL.

Can you update AOL Gold so we can delete an email with a single click instead of having to move the cursor to the popup "are you sure" window and click again?

Annoying to have to PERMANENTLY DELETE emails twice.

You now have to delete each email one by one. It was better before when you could just delete all without having to respond "yes" to each one.

I would like you to give one good reason why we have to delete unwanted email twice.

Change email deletion back to when it wasn't necessary to confirm the deletion with a mouse click.

go back to the old way instead of having a pop up box asking if we want to delete this mail. it is too time consuming and takes forever to delete mail

Maybe if we could drag a handful of mail to delete we wouldn't have to spend half an hour deleting aaaaand "approving" all the junk mail, "one at a time," we get. Get the idea?

When I go to delete an email, I am always asked the question: Are you sure you want to delete this message? Delete means delete. When you come to a stop sign, is the question asked, Are you sure you want to stop? Of course not, Delete means Delete. I will switch to gmail, please get it straight. Its commons sense.

Stop asking me if I'm sure after each deletion. It's an extra unnecessary step.

To many popups. Log on 2 to 3 popups. Saving mail to my computer 2 popups. deleting mail one popup asking if you really want to delete even though it is automatically save under deleted mail. When trying to do a search you would highlight the last search and when typing the new search the highlighted would automatically erase, now it adds on to the last search.

To delete a message you have to hit delete and then confirm the deletion. You must then hit delete to permanetly delete and then confirm that you want to permanetly delete. It takes 4 entries to get rid of a message. This need to be shortened.

Dear AOL,
Why must I delete twice? This takes double the amount of time. Please return back to the original procedure for deleting files which is in one click.
Thank you! -

AOL has made their customers come last rather then first. What a shame

Are you going to fix the SPAM and Delete problems in your programming or not? Simple question because if not, I will be looking for another mail server!

Now it takes extra time to delete mail. Why did you add the pop up boxes whenever you delete or permanently delete your mail? Seems AOL is on a downhill spiral. Now that one has to pay, you get less.
