I select more than one email & select move to old mail they do not move no matter how many times I try and on different days. Annoying!

Allow zooming on emails
I get text only emails sometimes as shipping notifications, and your app displays then so small as to be unreadable. There's no way to zoom in to read tiny text. You need a way to zoom in on emails.
To adjust the zoom level, pinch two or more fingers together or spread them apart.

Bring back the ability to filter NEW MAIL folder for addresses I want to let in. Now it's like I have TWO SPAM FOLDERS. What's ww you people
I used to be able to filter wanted addresses into new mail folder. The rest would go to spam. Your update removed that. Just leave well enough alone please. It makes me scared to do anymore updates of the app.
If unwanted junk mail is getting through your filters, the best way to stop it is to mark it as spam, under the ‘More’ menu.
Here’s how to easily mark emails as spam: http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/fss/e398952e897ea5a54d5af61e47ccc5d1/mark+as+spam.png (37 kB)
If you see emails wrongfully directed to your Spam folder, select the email and click “Not spam” to redirect it to your inbox.
For advanced settings, go to mail.aol.com on a desktop computer and create filters under Mail Settings. You can filter incoming mail to go to the folders where you want them — or, make unwanted mail from specific senders go straight into Trash or Spam. Note: You can create up to 50 filters.

allow direct access to email when clicking on AOL icon. without the Newsfeed coming up first then having to click on email button
AOL icon on my Samsung phone goes straight to the News. I want to change it so it goes to my email first.
To have the App open to Mail the next time you access it, make sure to close the app using the Overview button. Depending on the type of device you are using, this should be next to the Home button (to the left or to the right). Once you tap that button, it will open a list of thumbnail images of apps that you’ve worked with recently. To open an app, touch it. To remove a thumbnail from the list, swipe it left or right.

Allow zooming on text emails
I get text only emails sometimes as shipping notifications, and your app displays then so small as to be unreadable. There's no way to zoom in to read tiny text. You need a way to zoom in on text only emails. Zooming works fine on HTML emails, but it didn't work on the automated text only emails I sometimes get as shipping notifications. They break your viewer.
If the email contains basic text, you will need to pinch your fingers on the text inside of the email, in order to zoom. You might not be able to pinch to zoom on an empty white space in the email body.

The AOL App displays all the emails in your mailbox. In case you access your account from an email client (e.g. Outlook, Mac Mail, Thunderbird etc.) it is possible that some emails were downloaded from the server and stored locally in that email application.

messages déjà lus
bonjour mes messages déjà lus s'effacent immédiatement et je ne peux plus les consulter comment faire pour que je les conserve au moins quelques jours
merciWe are sorry to hear you’re missing emails. This issue might be a result of using the account configured as POP, in one of your mail clients or mobile devices.
POP downloads email from a server to a single computer/device, then deletes it from the server. Because your messages get downloaded to a single computer or device and then deleted from the server, it can appear that mail is missing or disappearing from your Inbox if you try to check your mail from a different computer. Please check your account setup on all of your devices and email clients (e.g. Outlook, Mac Mail, Windows Live Mail), and for the ones that are using the account as POP, please make sure to have the option to leave a copy of the message on the server checked, or setup the account to use IMAP instead of POP.
For help…
