password generator
I don't know if you guys are still experiencing problems with the password generator, but i was able to solve mine. I still can't generate a password on my PC, but i was able to generate a password on my iPhone. I copied this password, emailed it to myself, and then pasted it into the MS Outlook when prompted. I can now send/receive AOL/Verizon email in MS Outlook.

make it easier to delete
WHY do we have to go through 3 keyboard processes to delete the **** spam you dump in our spam folder. MAKE IT ONE PROMPT to check all and delete all. Just like GMAIL

blocking email address option within email
There should be a way to block emails from certain addresses from right within the email. In other words, you open an email and there is a button to block from that specific address instead of having to go to settings and add email addresses manually.

Asterisk Wild Card
I'm getting tons of spam messages and most of it seems to be coming from the same sender. The syntax is similar in the email addresses and off just enough so that AOL does not allow me to block them. I can no longer block domain names nor can I use the asterisk as a wild card to block similar addresses. So the spammers are changing their email address just enough to bypass my choices with AOL to block them. What can you do to investigate these people and get them to stop?

Very, very upset!! Mistakenly hit a button that changed my mail to “new mail”.
This changed completely how my screen looked and how I do my mail. Turns out that once I hit that button there is no way for me to go back to the old way (desktop version) that I use on my iPad. This is not acceptable - I want to see and use my mail the way I used to do it and now cannot do so!!!! Please allow for me to go back to my desktop view of my mail on my iPad!!!

I want to delete email from a specific sender without going from page to page
Please place a tab to delete all emails from a particular sender all at once no matter if the have 1 or 25,000 email coming to me. I should be able to delete all emails coming from them at once.

By not changing
Here is a idea as old as the hills and still rings true till this day.
HOW ABOUT NOT FIXING SOMETHING THAT IS NOT BROKEN.
See I use AOL because I love it. I have had it for years. I hate Gmail Yahoo and All other email sites. I love this one and I don't see anything wrong. I know if you change it then you'll start throwing ads popping all up and bull like that. Seriously you know you have to pay for it somehow. Save your money Sit back and relax you have done a great job so…8th ranked -
Go back to Classic, it has the features that are critical.
All word processing options in classic are critical. Such as, spelling, Font selection, underscore, etc. They do not exist in the new format. i will have to give up AOL, after being with them from their beginning.
Also, even with an AOL tech the new format will not scroll in Safari.

why? what was wrong with the old version? This new version takes up too much space at the with the stupid ad banner at the top. My reply is
why? what was wrong with the old version? This new version takes up too much space at the with the stupid ad banner at the top. My reply is AFTER the original message? Does the recipient have to scroll down to get the new message I am sending them? Why are the text controls down at the bottom? Very inconvenient. Instead of being able to see about 15-20 email selections all at once, you put them by date or timeframe and a person now has to scroll down A LOT searching for something?
Why don't you ask people what they…

Only spam emails that begin with A@ - you are getting better!
Yes!
The Admin @ spam emails seem to be gone from my spam e-mail.Now, if you could please work on the A@ spam emails that I get every minute - I wish I could be that popular as this spam email is!
Thanks so much for working on the A@ spam emails now - you can do it,AOL. Wouldn't it be nice to make your longtime AOL subscribers ecstatic??? It sure would!!

false advertisements
PLEASE STOP adding FALSE ADVERTISEMENTS to the news feeds!! Kevin Costner (along with Keanu Reeves, and any other celeb) has NOT put out their own line of CBD products. This is a LONG PROVEN fallacy!!! and yet, AOL has it in their news feed on the home page!!! Really???? COME ON!!!!

category
When you add a new Category, make it usable for other contacts. This is stupid that you ask me to add a new Category and then when I add another contact that I want to have that same Category, it is not there. STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

make it easy to forward AOL spoof/phishing to your security people
other sites have an email to which received spoof/phishing emails could be forwarded for review by their security
one would THINK that AOL would be interested in seeing those apparent spoof/phishing emails that reference AOL accounts (that are getting through your SPAM software) >>>or maybe not
this seems to be on the uptick and without it, use of AOL becomes a poor choice

make the boxes next to emails larger, I keep opening spam I'm tring to delete, then lose all I've previously marked to delete.
Very aggravating how tiny they've made the boxes next to the individual emails. You spend minutes marking a ton of spam for deletion only to have to do it all over again because you don't hit that little box just right. Has AOL done this on purpose so that we click on and open spam?

Android phone mail.
In an open email, the pop-up selection on the MORE menu - could you please consider moving the "Mark as spam" option lower in the choices and not at the top of the list. I don't know how many times I have accidentally hit than instead of "Mark as unread".

It would be great if you could show the number of emails in the inbox.
It would be great if you could show the number of emails in the inbox. You had this feature in your older versions.
