Attachment Preview option
I use desktop software for email & I appreciate to have an option to preview the attachment prior downloading the attachment. In this manner can only download those attachments which are required for future reference and discard those after reading. This option is not currently available. Please do the needful to have this option and advise.

ONCE AN EMAIL RECEIVED VIA AOL GOLD EMAIL IS OPENED THE ONLY WAY TO SEE THE PHOTO AGAIN IS TO DOWNLOAD THE PICTURE FILE. THIS OPTION WAS REMOVED BY AOL GOLD PROGRAMMERS, FOR WHAT PRODUCTIVE PURPOSE IS UNKNOWN, BUT SURLY A LARGE AND CONTINUING INCONVENIENCE OF REMOVING A FEATURE WE USED TO UTILIZE AND ENJOY. SO NOW, THE ONLY WAY TO RE-VIEW AND REPRISE A PHOTO INCLUDED WITHIN A SENT OR RECEIVED EMAIL VIA AOL GOLD IS TO ACTUALLY DOWNLOAD THE ATTACHED PHOTO FILE, WHICH THEN SEPARATES IT FROM ANY FURTHER, CONVENIENT AND RAPID REFERENCE REGARDING EMAIL. THIS AOL GOLD EMAIL FEATURE REMOVAL IS IDIOTIC AND BASELESS ON SO MANY LEVELS. AOL GOLD HAS NOW PROCEEDED TO MAKE THEIR PRODUCT LESS ATTRACTIVE WITHOUT ANY FEE ADJUSTMENT TO PAYING CUSTOMERS.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE FREE VERSION OF AOL EMAIL STILL INCLUDES THE "PHOTO PREVIEW" FEATURE.

ALSO, NO PHOTOS SAVED IN EMAILS OTHER THAN DOWNLOADABLE AS FILES AT BOTTOM. NUTS! PHOTOS JUST DISAPPEAR INTO A THAT TINY ICON BOX. Why does AOL GOLD no longer have the PHOTO "PREVIEW" function and/or option for photos sent within an email TO RE-APPEAR UPON RE-OPENING???? AOL GOLD NO LONGER retains the photos in the email "Sent" or "OLD" email files. WHY IS THIS??? NOTE: BECAUSE THE FREE VERSION OF AOL DOES HAVE THIS VALUABLE PHOTO "PREVIEW" FUNCTION. WHY IS THIS??? HOW DOES REMOVING FUNCTION OFFER MORE??? HOW DOES MAKING AOL GOLD MORE CUMBERSOME AND DIFFICULT OFFER MORE APPEAL FOR PAYING CUSTOMERS??? HOW DOES REMOVING PREVIOUS VALUABLE EMAIL FUNCTIONS IMPROVE THE OVERALL APPEAL OF AOL, OR AOL GOLD WHO'S MAJOR APPEAL MAY BE MANY OF ITS EMAIL OPTIONS AND FUNCTIONS. AND, NOW AOL GOLD WHILE REMOVING VALUABLE EMAIL FUNCTIONS, HAS PROCEEDED TO INVADE AND CLUTTER THE ENTIRE EMAIL WINDOW AND SCREEN WITH OBNOXIOUS ADVERTISING CLUTTER WHICH EATS UP PAYING CUSTOMERS CONNECTION AND DOWNLOAD SPEEDS. PLEASE REMOVE THIS ADVERTISING CLUTTER AND JUNK SPAM FROM OUR EMAIL. WE DON'T ACTUALLY THINK THAT AOL GOLD TECHS ARE STUPID, JUST MONEY GRUBBING, 20 SOMETHING COMPANY CROOKS.

AOL GOLD REMOVES "SENT" EMAIL PHOTOS IN THE "SENT MAIL" FILE, SHOWING ONLY THAT TINY LITTLE ICON BOX WHERE THE PHOTO SHOULD BE THAT SAYS "NO PREVIEW AVAILABLE FOR THIS IMAGE ATTACHMENT" . IT NEVER USED TO BE THIS WAY. WHERE ARE MY PHOTOS? WHATS THE PROBLEM?

AOL GOLD: Allow preview of any and all attached email photos and files. Allow preview of any and all attached email photos and files, as you do with basic AOL Mail program app. The way it is now is hit and miss, mostly miss to preview an attached photo. This capability is an important feature and should be part of the email functions like it was previously. Why AOL GOLD would disable and not provide this function appears to be idiotic.

Yup! Right, AOL Gold probably has the worst built-in problematic photo viewer in the industry. In fact, it just plain does not work and sometimes crashes the AOL Gold program as does several other features of this terrible program. It's amazing how AOL touts the Gold program with all its features, but it is in fact one of the worst programs out there. Amazing they charge fore this piece of dreck. I would think the most difficult part of AOL techs job is getting to sleep at night.

Photos in email or attached, will NOT load or open using AOL Gold 11.0.288 even thought it has a right-click function for this. IT DOES NOT WORK.
