It's like going back in time. Nothing in new version is an improvement.
Here are some of the differences that make it like going back in time instead of into the future.
All of the mail in the "Inbox" used to be accessed by just scrolling down to the bottom. Now you have to go to the bottom and then to go to the next item you have to go over to the page number section and choose the arrow to just go to the next page. You can't scroll up and down thru all the mail. Much more clicking and a lot more time consuming.
In the last version sorting was so simple. Just by clicking on the heading "From" it would sort all the incoming mail. And if you went to another folder it was already sorted and then when you came back to the Inbox it was still sorted. Now you have to go up and click to sort by that column and if you go to another folder do the same and when you come back to the Inbox it's no longer sorted so you have to do it over again.
To delete you used to be able to hit the shift key and select an entire section to delete at a time. Now you have to go back to the much much older method of clicking on each item to delete. Also you used to be able to delete an email while reading it by hitting the delete key on the keyboard. Now you have to go back to the top and click the delete word.

Hi there. Please make sure you're not using the basic version of AOL Mail, this version has limited options/features. For the new AOL Mail version, you should see the link to switch at the top right corner of your page, under the Sign out button.
