  2. Bring back words or phrases or senders that can be blocked in emails.

    Bring back words or phrases or senders that can be blocked in emails. It worked great in previous versions. I get over 100 spam emails per day from "renter" "info" "newsletter" "admin" "contact" "no reply and"16307" to name a few. There are some legitimate emails that go to spam that I have to search through to get.

  3. keyword block

    please create a keyword block (either in the email address or heading or in the subject matter that would automatically prevent email from being viewed in the spam folder or go directly to trash. This same block could be used for specific senders who change their email domain but not their name

  6. STOP posting ads with music

    It is especially annoying when I am on the phone or in a zoom meeting. The music for ads for Greece are especially annoying. My wife keeps running into my office asking what are you doing.

  8. reinstate 'Empty Spam Folder' option

    What happened to right-clicking the Spam icon in the left margin and having the "empty Spam Folder" option come up instead of having to go into the folder and delete entries page by page?

  9. I prefer old AOL version instead of the new version.

    You just changed the layout of AOL Mail and I don't like it. I'm still not used to it. I wish I had the previous version back which was much easier to use. My attachments were at the top of the email message instead of the bottom of the email. The "reply" button was also at the top instead of the bottom. I'm also having a more difficult time searching for old emails. Can I have the old version back?

  10. Trusted Domains

    I finally got AOL to stop deleting mail from a specific Domain before it gets to my Inbox now how about coming up with a method to add a specific Domain to either my contacts or some other Trusted list so I don't have to search my Spam folder for emails which contains hundreds of emails? I don't always know the specific contact up front.

  11. Navigation and background

    I like to older AOL better. MUCH easier to use and navigate. What happened to the wallpaper?? The new screen is very difficult to separate the old from new emails.

  12. I have trouble previewing attachments even given the option. Every image or document needs to be downloaded first.

    Enable previewing of attachments in received mail so that attachments can be viewed without downloading first.

  15. STOP BEING SO WOKE!!!

    AOL has turned into a bias woke joke. It's very obvious that AOL is far left liberal democrats by the articles posted. I now understand why AOL has such few customers. I will soon be another one who leaves. Try being fair when it comes to politics. You would probably have a lot more customers. Go Woke...Go Broke!!!

  17. When will you allow email attachments to be opened without having to save them to a folder. It makes no sense!

    Allow email attachments to be opened without saving to a folder. This limitation has been going on for some time and we need to be able to just open the attachment instead of saving it and having to go back and delete it. Other email servers allow this and I just can't understand why AOL hasn't made the change for the convenience of its customers.

  18. Allow return to an email automatically after it has been forwarded or responded to

    Upon opening an email then forwarding or responding; there should be a way to get back to the email. Easily. With the new AOL, you have to search for the email again.

  20. spam email deletion in the recent deleted folder put all delete

    when you delete emails they go to recently deleted then you have to delete them one at a time or use the right and left click at the same time to delete about 20 at a time and that is a pain when you have 300 400 or more spam emails at a time every day more than once a day so put delete ALL in the recently deleted email folder.
