  4. mark as unread

    Clicking on "Mark Unread" on a single Email Page, does not work anymore. I have to go back to the complete "Inbox" email list and click on the "Mark Unread" button, in order to save that email. Why?

    I tried deleting Desktop Gold and reinstalling, no luck.

    Good Morning,

    I've been trying to delete some folders under "My Mail Folders" .. The error message says either error code EC-4001 or it asks if I want to delete the folder and I say YES but it doesn't delete

    This has been going on for a while

    Thanks

  10. desktop gold mail composing.

    On Desktop Gold, when trying to write an email, there are no longer manageable margins. in other words, when typing a line in an email, it keeps going beyond the margins of the email, and when one hits "enter" to go to the next line, one loses sight of the cursor completely, with no means of scrolling to the left. There is no justification whatsoever.
    When I spoke to tech support, they are clueless, saying one must go to full page size to write an email. That is not workable.

    Also, the latest update appears to count words. that is…

  11. Cant retrieve old email from trash

    Please let me determine when I want to permanently delete email. I just learned that emails are automatically deleted after a week. When I do a search in trash, all I get is a long list of "me" emails. There are times when I truly need an old email. Your cat assoc. suggested that I save all my emails in a folder. That's not efficient.

  17. Views

    Provide a way to DELETE the "Views' folder. It opens up expanded taking up 6 lines and is of no use. Currently it can't be modified or deleted.

  20. Automatic open

    AOL now automatically opens the next email. This is dangerous, as it could be spam, etc. We need a way to turn this off, or I am off AOL for good.
