  2. Hate your new format, if I don't get the old format back I will be switching to Proton mail. Don't take long or I will be gone.

    Give me back my old mail settings or I am gone. It's that simple and don't take days to do it. Very stupid change. Fire whoever's idea it was. You wasted your money.

  4. closing mail

    You used to be able to click the top right X to close an email and leave it in the inbox for later, wherever you happened to be in the email. Now you have to scroll back up to the top to close it. Obviously no one on the design team has ever actually used this email tool.

  7. PLEASE MOVE BULK DELETE BUTTON TO PROTECT USERS

    I deleted YEARS of info by accident. The BULK Button is TOO CLOSE to the normal delete. I have lost legal and family info that dates back YEARS. This is WRONG. your tech support say there is no way to RESTORE past 7 days. MY CONTACTS ARE ALL GONE>

    I AM SO DISSAPOINTED IN AOL its TRAGIC!

  11. keep

    After I read an email, I would often click on "Keep as New" for further review. Now I have to go to a dropdown to select it. Please provide "Keep as New" as a first-screen option

  13. Goodbye, AOL

    I cannot use AOL any longer. I will have to set up a new provider and send emails to all my Contacts so they can find me as I shut down my five [5] Screen Names I use for Personal and Political purposes.

    The last straw was opening a Screen Name functioning well yesterday to find it in the New and when I went back to Basic it does not have the Preview Pane. This keeps happening unbeknowst to me.

    Goodbye AOL

  18. contacts

    Old Contacts had various fields for things like mailing/street address. The "support" person I spoke to about getting this information retrieved did not believe that was true. You put the fields there, I filled them in in good faith that I could use the data, I want the data back.

  19. Why can't I have all my emails forwarded automatically?

    Why can't I have all my emails forwarded automatically? I found your instructions but as expected they do not work. I can't even find some of your steps. AOL has been the most awful email experience ever.
    Your instructions:
    Login to your AOL inbox.
    Make sure your inbox view is set to Classic Mail. (You can change this by going to Settings, then pressing the box that says Switch to Classic Mail.) FYI, it's called BASIC MAIL. THERE IS NOTHING CALLED CLASSIC.
    Now, go to Settings. That works.
    Select General Settings in the left menu. LEFT(?) Again, NO GENERAL SETTINS…
