Excuse me,
I've CONFIRMED set up a third-party app password, POP(or IMAP) ,and SMTP configuration CORRECTLY (protocol domains, ports used, and SSL/TLS enabled are all exactly) with my account to login.

However, it always returns the following errors while trying to login on Outlook Desktop client (Outlook 2019) at Windows 10：
--
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes of this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.
--
Outlook is unable to connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact the server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

At last, I’ve appreciated your great work! 😊

P.S. the above settings are working fine on my Android and iPhone built-in mail Apps with IMAP/SMTP Protocol.

I had to change my password in AOL, now that password is being rejected in Windows Live mail. I have removed the account and added it back multiple times to no avail. I can log in via the internet just fine and access on my phone works just fine with the new password. The only place that rejects the new password is Windows Live mail, which is my most important place to keep, organize and access emails. Every other platform is too cumbersome for email organization. I love Windows Live Mail. What the heck is wrong, that it won't access your server with my new password????

I have to get a pass word from a other email every time !!!!! i want to read my aol

Unable to send mail via iOS Mail and Verizon.net. It was working for a while, then suddenly stopped working. I can receive mail fine on all devices, and can send mail fine on Mac, but not on iPhone or iPad. I changed nothing. I just can no longer send mail without going to web mail.

A few months ago, AOL started rejecting my login from Outlook very suddenly. Nothing has changed and I use the same credentials to login via the web. I hate that format and I want to use the email client that I paid for to keep my emails organized and stored offline. What is the issue here?

Recently got a smart phone and it can't get my emails despite asking for password, and getting it, (maybe it's not so smart after all), OR aol is just too old to understand; having a laptop AND a smart phone by the same person. Yes? NO... Then why can't my phone get my emails? Do I have to sign-up for a separate account? It would be nice if AOL joined the 21st century.

All my emails go out but not with my email address. They show up on others email as AOL Upgrade Service and a lot of my emails are being deleted because of this. They think it is SPAM mail. Please fix this. If I could change to another email service I would.

email opens fine in AOL Mail but comes up as code with no images or symbols on Microsoft Mail App Windows 10

I have gmail email and have tried for several months to fix aol... in order to receive and send email. Using IPHONE w latest ios.......... have been aol user since beginning........ and have had issues in last several months with no resolve. I did finally make contact with aol and handed my iphone access to cust service who fixed problems but ONLY lasted a few weeks and now back to can use on my iPHONE unless i url aol and then sign in ..

Guys are you going out of business????

This person markganin0909@outlook.com has hacked my Facebook page and this aol account .please help

I'm having the same problem as everyone below. The POP3 stopped working mid January. Can no longer use email retrieval on my cell. Thanks a lot Verizon/AOL.

UGh, glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem. I haven't been able to connect for months and I didn't change anything. Everything is right according to the webpage but the servers do not respond and just say try again later.

I understand why Verizon/AOL stopped supporting POP3; IMAP allows the company to store and read ALL of your e-mails to better farm and *monetize* you . Even better, breaking the connection altogether forces you to pay to view their advertising--they get twice the money! Please return to supporting POP3. Then I can stop paying for my own ad-free, POP friendly, URL and service.

Why doesn't AOL FIX the Verizon Problem for all of us

AOL Mail on Windows 10 is no longer syncing with IPhone IOS Mail. Deleted mail on IPhone is not updating in view of email account in Windows 10. The INBOX in Windows 10 is growing very rapidly and is getting unmanageable. This problem has occurred in the last week.
Solutions?

I have a verizon.net email address and I'm using the AOL server. I cannot setup Outlook using the AOL server settings:
Protocol Server Settings Port Settings
POP 3 Incoming mail server (POP3): pop.verizon.net
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.verizon.net POP3-995-SSL
SMTP-465-SSL
IMAP Incoming mail server (IMAP): imap.aol.com
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.verizon.net IMAP-993-SSL
SMTP-465-SSL

same issue - cannot save contacts and i use it for my business. has anyone found a solution?

Once I find a way to get another email client I'm moving away from this AOL no help site! I can't download to my Android email app nor can I download email to my laptop Thunderbird account. They seem to want me to use the AOL app, which won't allow me to play videos within the app and make me use the Web AOL for email so that I have to get their advertisements. Poor service and very poor reactions to all these questions. They simply don't care!

Same problem and no why I can get help from AOL.

Me too. My verizon.net account just stopped working. Is there a fix for this?
