  2. 3rd party email

    I cannot vote up other comments for some reason so I am writing my own. This 3rd party email app password is a horrible idea. I never wanted to be an AOL user and I feel betrayed by Verizon. I have been using Outlook as a mail client for many years and now, I must use YOUR password, a password YOU control, rather than my own. I feel this is less secure for me. At the very least you should make this an option and allow your customers to assume any risk of using their existing passwords with email clients.

  3. Heads up It looks like you’re trying to access Mail in a different language. You can update your account settings or read more here. message

    Receantly I have beeen getting this message 'It looks like you’re trying to access Mail in a different language.

  4. Arranging Sent Mail

    When I am in the Inbox, I can click on the From column, and all of the emails are alphabetized by sender. I cannot do that when I am in the Send folder. Why is that, and can it be changed to the same feature as the Inbox?

  6. Enable time sent option in Inbox or New/Old Mail view, and display time sent in messages.

    Enable time sent option in Inbox or New/Old Mail view, and display time sent in messages. It seems to me to display arrogance on the part of AOL that one can see time sent when looking at the original message while replying/forwarding, but at no other time (except in Inbox for today's messages).

  13. Video commercial playing with every email opened

    I finally am going to move to another email service. Having to stop a video from playing on the right side of the screen every time I open a new email has finally prompted me to do what I should have done a long time ago. Ridiculous. It will be the end of AOL.

    Stop forcing me to prove I'm not a robot!!!!! Your email box is NOT a bank account. I never get the characters you send either - and can't get to the spam folder to look for them. What idiot thought this one up???

  16. Recurring failure notice won't stop

    No clear way to stop a recurring Failure Notice. Not seeing any way to stop the same notice that is repeating more than 50 times in my Inbox and don't want to miss a new Failure Notice. There needs to be a Help answer for this.

  17. Mail Rules

    In Microsoft Exchange (and Outlook), we can define "mail rules". If certain conditions of an email meet certain conditions, the client (in the case of Outlook) or the server (in the case of Exchange), can pre-apply what you want. This can include marking things with tags, moving things to folders, and even marking things with flags or read. Using client apps like Apple Mail or Windows Mail, I can do a lot of the same things, but I would like server-side settings. In AOL Mail Settings, I would like to define server-side rules beyond just blocking certain senders, much like…

  18. client connect

    A few days ago my Thunderbird email client stopped working.
    I am a Verizon user and my email is robert.fetter@verizon.net.
    When I start it, it connects to pop.verizon.net and sends my user name, In a while it times out and I get "Sending of password for user robert.fetter did not succeed. Mail server pop.verizon.net responded: [SYS/TEMP] Server error - Please try again later."
    I have a subaccount of dkdfetter set up for my wife and things are working for her.

    To get…

  19. show timestamp

    It would be helpful to show the Time along with Month & Date, when viewing In-box folder and SPAM folder. This may possibly indicate a clue as to who needs to be notified regarding their e-mail - and reduce SPAM.
