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.
I have a couple of troubleshooting steps for you that should resolve this issue:
1. If you’re signed in, tap the Settings icon, tap Manage Accounts, then tap Edit, tap Remove
2. Restart your mobile device
3. Uninstall and reinstall the app with the latest version
4. Lastly, switch the internet connection from WiFi to mobile data -

I have called and searched..no one has helped me. The appearance of my email address is wrong when I send a email. How do I changed it?
You may want to try changing your Display Name. Go to https://help.aol.com/articles/aol-mail-mail-settings and expand Display and Sound Settings | How do I change my Display Name?
If you’re using your email on different platforms (such as a smartphone, tablet, or Outlook) please check your settings on any email program to make sure that you haven’t changed your display name associated with it.
