    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.

  13. 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. ****

    Please remove your account from the email app, restart your device then add the account again. Also, check the Incoming mail server settings in your email application, and make sure they match the IMAP/POP settings in the section titled ""AOL Mail POP and IMAP settings"" from the following help article: https://help.aol.com/articles/how-do-i-use-other-email-applications-to-send-and-receive-my-aol-mail

    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.

    https://login.aol.com/account/security

    After this turning ON this option, check if your mail application is able to connect. If the problem persists, verify if the ""Two-step verification"" option on the Account Security page (the URL

    Due to recent adjustments to the AOL Mail platform, the Spam Settings customization, are no longer available. We apologize for the inconvenience. In order to block a specific sender, go to Options – Mail Settings – Spam Settings, from a desktop computer, and add the email addresses in the box below “Block Mail from Addresses I Specify”, then click Save Settings at the bottom, and in case you receive unwanted emails in the Inbox, mark them as Spam.

  19. 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. Is this a bug or your idea of an app upgrade. If it's upgrade, I hate it. I keep some read emails in my inbox as reminders, and would still like to filter and delete all.
