    Way too hard to read email list now. PLease get rid of this change, or give us an opt out choice.

  • Sandra Kelley commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please remove this new change immediately. At least give us an opt out choice. It is horrible

  • Sandra Kelley commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agree with this 100%. It is driving me crazy. Please remove it ASAP or give us an opt out choice.

  • Sandra Kelley commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree. I cannot stand this new feature. Please remove it, or give us an opt out. ASAP

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get rid of that yellow hightlight on email

  • ARLINE GEORGE commented  ·   ·  Report

    This yellow or orange is driving me nuts. It takes so much longer to deal with the email. I keep deleting things by accident. PLEASE HELP US ALL AND GO BACK TO HAVING NO COLOR!!!!! MAGNIFICATION COVERS THE LATTER PART OF THE EMAIL TITLE, SO i CAN'T SEE WHAT IT IS. HELP!!!!!!

  • Carolyn Newson commented  ·   ·  Report

    It’s not like it is free…we pay monthly for AOL GOLD and we don’t like the new preferences. These new ideas should be in Mail Settings to be opt in or out according to the user preferences…Period. It really takes a lot of nerve to change something that was great to something we are now thinking to stop paying monthly because of the lack of respect for your users.

    I am going in circles. Every time I fill this out something comes back and asks me how to improve it and then it’s gone! TAKE THE IRANGE HIGHLIGHT OFF THE MESSAGES AS WELL AS THE MAGNIFICATION!

  • ARLINE GEORGE commented  ·   ·  Report

    This orange on email is another of your silly ideas and is making my reading of the mail more difficult. PLEASE EITHER GET RID OF IT OR MAKE IT OPTIONAL. I CAN'T STAND IT!!!!

  • Edd Mucha commented  ·   ·  Report

    Amen! This "feature" just jumped in one fine day. It is totally useless to me, causes problems with clicking on Emails or trying to delete. Why, as paying customers, do we not have the option of "Opting out" of this "feature"?????

  • SUE JONES commented  ·   ·  Report

    Looking for the best idea ever: Get rid of that magnification in gold.
    Distracting and difficult on the eyes.

    Geezzz people. If we have to pay for AOL, at least make it an option rather than a headache! It's on Gold but not on the normal aol mail

  • rosalie rubaum commented  ·   ·  Report

    This was the worst ida and difficult to read . Instead of making AOL better you managed to ruin it even farther down the line.

  • J GOLDBERG FAMILY commented  ·   ·  Report

    Thank you! Was just about to tell them the same thing. It drives me crazy. LOL

  • Victor Elder commented  ·   ·  Report

    remove yellow highlighter, how long do we have to put up with the yellow highlighter

  • LINDA CARR commented  ·   ·  Report

    Very distracting, annoying, makes me dizzy. I called into tech support and they told me to use a different browser to read aol mail if it bothers me that much! Can you believe that!!! I am a very, very long time PAYING CUSTOMER who uses the Desktop Gold software. We need a way to turn this feature off. Come on AOL after so many complaints what are you waiting for?

  • Lindie Gibson commented  ·   ·  Report

    I really don't care for the small trashcan icon - from time to time I accidentally delete an email that I want to read.... Also - when you added blue to a highlighted email or gold to a highlighted email - it makes the whole list jump, and this is getting old and pretty annoying.... thankyou for allowing feedback ~

  • RICHARD ROGERS commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree, enlarging the font when the mouse hovers over the email, is a terrible idea.
    Please let users turn this "feature" off.

  • RICHARD ROGERS commented  ·   ·  Report

    I also do not want the font to be enlarged when I hover the mouse over an email.
    Please give users the option to turn off this "feature".

  • shellscale commented  ·   ·  Report

    I talked to customer support. They didn't care. This orange enlarging bar is a joke. It actually causes a dizzy sensation. I see AOL deleted most of the complaints.

  • ARLINE GEORGE commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please remeove the orange when I click on my mail. It makes the reading hard and the deletion very difficult!!! I want onlyl the old way, no orange, PLEASE!!!!!
