    The instructions for this section says Please contact our help site if you’re experiencing an issue that prevents you from using Mail as expected.But going to the help site, there is no way to do anything except search. I tried all the contact options in the lower left but everything just takes me back to the search. I wanted to complain about mail completely reloading while I was trying to reply to a email. All my email windows were closed and what I was working on was not saved as a draft.

    Please 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 above) is turned ON or OFF.

    In case this feature is turned ON, you…

    Why, all of a sudden, I am unable to open my calendar? The AOL Calendar has frequently been unavailable, but now the several ploys that have previously worked have not allowed me to open my Calendar, and this is disturbing for me as I have multiple doctor and medical appointment on it, as well as other information.

  9. How do I save the contents of a mailing list when I have entered the addresses?

    I am attempting to set up a group mailing list. No problem setting up the list and entering email addresses, but I can find no way to save the work I have done. If I just click off the list and exit AOL, when I come back the list is still there but the addressess have disappeared. How do I save my work?

  20. same subject emails getting automatically moved from old mail to new mail.

    2nd request: Why does AOL now put previous emails with the same subject line back into new mail just because another email arrives with the same subject? It's time consuming and maddening to have to keep moving these back to old mail, constantly. Is there a solution I can implement?

    This might be a result of using IMAP. If you have an email application (e.g. Outlook, Windows Mail, Mac Mail, native mobile email app) that displays messages in a conversation view, marking one of those emails as Unread will move the entire conversation into the New mail folder.

    If this is not the case, please contact our Mail Team by emailing them at aolmailquestions@aol.com, in order to further investigate this.
