stop requiring two-step authentication for Outlook users
Stop requiring two-step authentication for Outlook users. I also use AOL via web and I'm tired of authentication codes when signing in on the web. I've been an AOL user for 30 plus years and I'm ready to switch to GMAIL in spite of all the headaches involved.

Two things are happening.
One, there are random two-factor checks that may or may stop after a few days or weeks.
Second, each time one logs in from a different IP address, say a computer in a different physical location, AOL makes you sign in with two-factor authentication for days, weeks or months.
It is VERY troublesome.
First, one becomes dependent on a cell phone to log into email.
Second, it is a big time waster.
