Email disappearing to trash
I’m sick of my emails being sent to the deleted file after I open them. Please do something about this.
This issue might be a result of using POP to access your mail from a 3rd party app. Please check your email apps (Outlook, Mac Mail, Windows Mail, Thunderbird or native mobile email apps).
Also, make sure that you do not have a filter set up to move Sent mail to another folder, or to delete mail from the Sent folder after a certain amount of time. -

Whatever
Whatever has happened to AOL Mail? I've used it for nearly 20 years but e-Mail support is useless - non-existent in fact. Can't access my Mail account via my Apple devices and can't get any sensible advice or support. Once I go through the incredibly time-wasting hassle full process of transferring all of my contacts and notifications I will be leaving. Unless I get some better service - or even a response. ****

The incoming and outgoing mail servers require SSL enabled for all ports, and also the username field in the account setup, needs to contain your full email address, including @aol.com at the end.
In case your server settings are correct, open the link below (and sign in if necessary), and make sure the option ""Allow apps that use less secure sign-in"" is turned ON.

Select all option is unavailable
It works fine if I am looking at all my mail, but if I filter and click on a message, the "select all" option does not come up on the screen. This has worked in the past and now it doesn't.
