  2. I cannot view my email or spam in AOL Gold. I have run iexplore which has worked in the past , but now it does nothing.

    I cannot view my email or spam in AOL Gold. I have run iexplore which has worked in the past , but now it does nothing. I have to get my email via my phone, but now I am getting messages from AOL that may not work after October and want me to do some app upgrade on my android to continue, I pay 16.99 per month for your service but only use it for mail.It may be better if I go to gmail for free.

  5. Mail and mailbox slow to load

    Last update has broken the mailbox. Messages in folders are extremely laggy - slow to load, load out of order and then reload, deleting messages is slow - everything was working great and now it's a mess.

    The spam folder has had an issue for awhile. Clicking on "this is not spam" causes the message to disappear completely. It does not get transferred to the inbox.

  15. GOLD continually does NOT show me my current e-mails. I am PAYING for this and am frustrated. What the **** is wrong with GOLD?

    GOLD should show current e-mails first. Mine continually do not show up. GOLD is a mess.

  16. Marking an email "UNREAD" does not restore BOLD black.

    It does remove the 'hard-to-see' red check, but leaving the senders ID and subject in gray makes it blend in with all the emails that had been read.

  20. mail

    I do not like the new version of email started in July 2020. When I click read, the email comes up blank.I close it, click read again and it comes up with the contents. I then have to go to top of email and click "allow xxxx" to be able to open anything in that email. More steps and nothing is improved, please go back to the way it was.
