  1. sort by sender

    Sort by sender in New Mail is needed. It's available in folders, but not New Mail, which is where I like to filter things out. New Mail currently only allows to sort by date. I've had to create a new folder to put new mail into so I can sort it, but if I don't deal with it immediately it tends to get forgotten because it's not in the New Mail that I see each time I log in. Thank you!

  3. Remove that top-line ad in email inbox list.

    The top-line/moving ad causes me to routinely delete the wrong emails in my inbox - driving me crazy. I've no doubt missed important emails. What an awful place to force an ad. Do you really mean to irritate us every time we try to read mail?

  4. Go back toi the way it was

    I don't like this new format. The way the older system was set was easy and quick for me to use. I am not impressed by this change. Please set it back/

  5. Restore "Old" email handling of links:

    When a link is embedded as text in an incoming message, recognize it and underline it - and (most important) if I click on it, follow it and open that location in a new tab.

  7. Go back to classic format.

    Go back to the old, classic email.The old format was much more user friendly. There is no advantage to the new format.

  9. Allow me to determine what is and is not spam email. Stop adding [!! SPAM] on the subject line!!

    Way too many emails pass through the spam filter and arrive in Outlook inbox with [!! SPAM] in the subject line when they are not spam emails!!
    I'm fed up with this!!!
    Please allow me to switch off spam filtering entirely or start dropping them into the spam folder where I can mark them as not spam!

  12. OPTION OF CLASSIC FORMAT

    Will you please give us the option of returning to the classic format. This ridiculous new version is now taking me anything up to four times as long to send a work-related e-mail, and as I work in the funeral industry this is not time I can afford to waste.

  13. Allow email addresses to be viewed in the inbox

    As any idiot, except AOL Mail, knows, the name of an email address can be spoofed. GIVE US THE ABILITY TO VIEW THE EMAIL ADDRESS. If some people want to see the spoofed name, let them keep the spoofed name. AT LEAST allow us the option to turn on the email address in the inbox listing.

  16. Without being able to sort by sender, I am no longer interested in having AOL

    WHen you are cleaning out your inbox, sorting by sender is the easiest way to mass delete when you get a ton of emails. Taking this away, means you most likely lost my business.

  19. STOP shoving "related contacts" in our face when sending an email. They are NOT related. Just 1 more nuisance to click off before I can send

    STOP shoving "related contacts" in our face when sending an email. They are NOT related. Just 1 more nuisance to click off before I can send. RESTORE the ability to highlight and drag rather than having to cut & paste. REMOVE the silly logos on email addresses and RESTORE plain text so that we can highlight & move them to the body of our reply to avoid premature sending. And MOVE THE SEND BUTTON away from the end of the text we are composing to avoid premature sending. Hey, how about PUTTING IT BACK ON THE TOP TOOL BAR????

  20. Spacing Issues & Forced Grouping by Date

    Is "ANYONE LISTENING." This horrible, ridiculous, visually painful, dumbed down version of AOL (and I've used AOL mail, various email addresses for various purposes for nearing 30 years, so I'm NOT happy, I was loyal, now I feel forced to leave AOL) - is GROUPING our inbox (possibly other folders as well, honestly it's too visually painful and mind spinning to look at it to check) into time/day/week/month. NO, I want a list of my emails, one list sorted as I want it sorted - AS WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD BEFORE YOU FORCED THIS HORRIFIC CHANGE ON US. This is…
