mark unread goes to bold format
In the new AOL, marking "unread" makes the heading go back to the bold format. Marking "unread" used to make it grayed out (non bold). Please let me go back to having "unread" show as non-bold.

AOL Basic Mail will not load
I requested to switch back to basic mail and it will not load. Just spins and spins and nothing ever happens. When I switch back to new mail it loads right up. Please make Basic Mail load again. Even better - get rid of new mail entirely. Print is too small, no color or font options. It's horrible.

Mail not loading. Just spins and spins. Please fix this
When I try to use the old email format, which is far superior to the new on, my inbox will not load, just keeps spinning. When I switch to the new mail format, it will load. Obviously a ploy to get us to switch to an inferior product. Please make the old system work again.

delete
24k emails in "recently deleted. Click the trash can to permanently delete and AOL locks up. Did you mean to keep my 24K recently deleteds and 100K other users 10K recently deleteds on your servers?
Maybe improve server performance as users try to delete their stuff. Allow users to delete more than 100 at a time. Give us the option to PERMANENTLY DELETE right from the inbox instead of assuming we don't know what the **** we are deleting and that we might need to recover deleted items.
Hi there. When deleting "all" emails in a folder, including Trash, there is a limit of 10,000 emails per action.

Responding to an email brings up several layers of the conversation
This is making me crazy! Responding to an email brings up several layers of the conversation and I only want to respond to the ONE current email. It is so confusing to scroll within a long conversation to the current email you are responding to.
Hi. I'm sorry for the inconvenience this is causing you! I recommend turning off conversations, by going to Settings>More settings>Viewing email>Group by conversation. If you need help adjusting to the New AOL Mail, please contact us on Twitter at @AOLSupportHelp or on Facebook at our AOL Customer Care page. If you do not have a social media account, we are available at help.aol.com.

Hire someone that can help me
My wife passed away last year, I had her phone turned off about a month later, I know her password but can not get in because you want to send the authorization code to her old #. I've called support about 3 times and was told to call back in a couple days, I'm tired of no help. Who or what department do I need to contact
Hi. We're very sorry for your loss.
In the unfortunate event of a death of the billing contact for an AOL account, ownership can easily be transferred to another AOL Username already listed under the account.
Note: If you don't own a Username on the AOL account and would like to make changes to the account, please contact one of our AOL Customer Support Team Representatives at 1-800-827-6364.

3rd World email Format
The forced implementation of the current sub standard email format is highly unprofessional, and your inability to respond to User complaints is very ignorant . How very sad that you haven't the moral fibre or courage to answer the User concerns and comments.
Hi there. The older version is no longer available. If you need help adjusting to the New AOL Mail, please contact us on Twitter at @AOLSupportHelp or on Facebook at our AOL Customer Care page. If you do not have a social media account, we are available at help.aol.com.
