Accessing Verizon Email via Gmail Website
I usually access my Verizon/AOL email via the Gmail website using POP to import email messages. As of 7/29/21, this stopped working. I tried using the new app-specific passwords in AOL email security, but it doesn't work. I get an error message about not being able to leave a copy of the message on the server. I have verified that the "leave message on server" box is unchecked.
Note that this has been working fine for years, but something changed at AOL in the past week or so.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for reaching out. Please try generating an app password, which can be found at the bottom of the page under “Account Security.” You can navigate there by clicking Options and selecting “Account Info.”
Please let us know if you experience any issues.
Sincerely,
AOL Product Support
