  1. Email "Saved on my PC".

    PLEASE I ASK FOR THE 10th TIME....give us a side bar to quickly access the folder when we are saving an email to "Saved On My PC". I have hundreds of email folders saved on my PC. Having to hold the ARROW, at the bottom of the folder listing until you get to the folder you want is SO ANNOYING AND TIME CONSUMING.

    There is a side bar when I am looking for a particular email in a folder in the Saved on my PC and that is productive...so please make it easier and productive to Save an Email to…

  2. For what we pay a month for AOL Gold, how long are we going to have to continuing deleting emails twice?

    For what we pay a month for AOL Gold, how long are we going to have to continuing deleting emails twice? Why did you change it. If I didn't want to cancel the email in the first place, I wouldn't cancel it.

  6. allow spelling changes within spell check.

    after generating an email, one uses aol spell check and comes across a misspelled word-
    if the correct word is not in the suggested list, one must close spell check and manually correct the spelling in the email.
    spell check should allow for changes to be made dynamically in the box where the misspelled word shows up.

  9. IMPROVEMENTS

    The technician was very helpful ... however, the AOL GOLD system tends to freeze ... prevents you from doing work on many occasions and you must re-start your computer ... also, it ERRORS when you are sending BCC (bulk) e-mails to organizations and groups that before was much easier ... Spam is now controlled - if needed - from everyones computer, no need to have such restrictions! Thank You!P.S. Loyal customer since 2004!!N.B. Also, your images are not holding like they did previously?PPS Please Change Policy on BCC/Bulk so we can stay customer friendly!!

  11. Emails received shown for all accounts

    Please restore the ability to see how many emails you may have in another email address without having to switch to it. Before Gold, next to other address names , the number of email was in parenthesis. i.e

    **-1 (12)
    *
    *-2 (3)
    etc

  13. EMAIL Options still missing important feature

    When writing, or copying, text into an email. The option to INSERT a URL is present - BUT the option to REMOVE a URL is missing. It was in the pre-Gold AOL, but has been asked for many times, yet never replaced.
    Sure, I can click "INSERT URL" and delete it.. But that's crude! and error-prone.
    ALSO- when pasting words that contain a 'hidden' URL, the words are underlined and blue, but placing the cursor on them does NOT show what the underlying (hidden) URL is. Again, have to "INSERT URL" and read it... just crude again, and also error-prone.

  16. Downloading Emails - Need how Old AOL did it back

    In the older versions of AOL, there was an option to Download an entire Email as a PDF.file.
    Another Option was to Select and Download Some or ALL embedded images.

    This has been missing from Gold. Saving an email in AOL format only on either AOL or in a Local aol folder leaves it still in AOL format and not sufficient.

  17. Email problem

    In your old version you could change the setting to keep a just sent email on the screen so you could make changes to it snd maybe send it on to someone else. Not it just closes and you have to type it again. I had asked your tech. department about this right after gold came out and was told they were working on the way to add that feature back in. That has been quite a while and still no fix.
