  1. Pictures come as attachment and none in the mail

    Now when I get pictures in the mail they are not in the email to see. Everyone now needs to be downloaded and you can't see them if five are sent that's five times I must click on each picture and download it where before you could do all five and you could view the picture in the email before saving them. This needs to be fixed!!! you have made Aol a nightmare to have and I am going to look for another server instead of wasting my money with you!!!!!

  3. COPY PASTE from EMAIL to new EMAIL no longer works

    Previous AOL Desktops would allow MULTIPLE images to be COPIED then PASTEd to another email. BETA 2566 no longer does this.

    Though all wanted images are high-lighted and 'COPY'ied ,, ONLY the

    last one is pasted. NO accompanying text is copied & pasted..

    With the BUGGY CRASHING I Can't get anything REPLIED to AND NOW COPY PASTED (work-around) ...

  4. spam

    We need better spam controls that block mail before it even gets to our mailbox. The mail in the spam folder has grown exponentially and we have to check spam to insure valid emails are not there. We need an easy way to report spam so it does not make it to us. Otherwise, why am I paying for AOL. In looking at the comments, tis seems to be a priority to your customers.

  7. DRAFT MAIL LOADES MULTIPLE COPIES OF THE SAME DRAFT, AT THE SAME TIME???

    POSTED AUG 1, 2019
    DRAFT EMAIL OPENS MULTIPLE COPIES OF SAME SAVED EMAIL.
    "DRAFT FOLDER: IF YOU ACCIDENTALLY CLICK ON EMAIL "WHICH IS ALREADY OPENED & IS BEING EDITED" IT OPENS "2ND" "UNEDITED VERSION" WHICH FORCES USER TO REVIEW 2 PAGES AND TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHICH ONE IS NEWEST VERSION =
    NEW CLICK SHOULD JUST BRING UP OPENED COPY. WHICH IS ALREADY BEING EDITED.
    IT DOES NOT.
    IT OPENS A SAME EMAIL AGAIN, UNEDITED SAVED VERSION.+ EDITED VERSION. VERY TIME CONSUMING TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHICH IS WHICH..

    THANK YOU

  10. forward mail

    I would like to be able to forward all of my mail to another email address for answering while I am away. But all I can do is use an auto responder. There should be a an email setting of "forward all mail to: [enter an email address]" with an option to choose "until revoked" or for "X" number of days.

  12. Please change back to email address

    You need to change back to email address, and not the person name.
    I cannot identify the persons name, can only identify by email address.
    Please change back
    Thank you

  13. What good does it do to reassign my complaint about Sexually explicit SPAM to another category when you didn't do anything to solve my probl

    You reassigned my complaint to another category this morning but have done NOTHING to grant my request of getting features back to control this kind of SPAM. That doesn't do me any good. That is non-responsive, in my opinion.

  15. STILL NOT COPY THE EMAIL ADDRESS

    Like I said before, only copy one email address, not the whole list, I don't like to do reply or forward, I like to send new emails. Why is so difficult to make it like before? I'm not new on AOL. Please work on this issue.
