How can we improve AOL Mail?

GO BACK TO CLASSIC EMAIL

I just want classic email back. I've had it since 1995. Can't handle the change, don't mess up what already works.

    As any idiot, except AOL Mail, knows, the name of an email 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.

    AOL is ENCOURAGING FRAUD by not allowing the ability for us to view the EMAIL ADDRESS in the inbox.

    The previous thread has @ 14,000 comments and this has now vanished (The comment from NancyAnn highlights this very clearly). These comments and the current one highlights the difficulties (not glitches) that users are experiencing. These are genuine concerns and not moans for the sake of moaning. A number of users have stated they are migrating to alternative platforms. Yet Product Support have ignored this, there has been no change to the e-mail system. By admitting that they have goofed and re-instate the old system is not a sign of weakness, it is a sign of maturity to admit a mistake.

    Please go back to Classic AOL. I can't move a draft e-mail to another folder in the new AOL.
    In the old e-mail, I could move a draft to a properly categorized folder for reference purposes.

    Terrible change. Go back to the original or at least offer the option to do so.

    What happened to the 14,000 negative comments that were on here before??? Trying to make it look like just few people are unhappy?? So you are into censorship now??

    This comment is similar to the one I made on the suggestion that had almost 14,000 replies, but now appears to have disappeared (along with my comment).
    Why can't we have the option to return to classic AOL? It was there a few weeks ago (here in the UK), so why can't we have it now?
    Like others on here, I tried the new version several times whilst it was optional, but quickly returned to the classic version as it was far superior in all aspects.

    I am not happy at all with how my account has recently changed. I do not like the way my aol mail is displayed. I want it back to the way it was 1 to 3 months ago. I am very unhappy with what you have done and am considering ending my 30+ year relationship with aol.

    My mail is now a nightmare. I want new mail and old mail separate. When I save as new I want it there, I don't want opened mail sitting month after month in my new mailbox. I want to be able to find my old mail when I need it.

    700 pages of negative feedback on the format changes. you tried and it FAILED!!!!. Now change it back!

  • Gail Grossmann commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please, please bring back the older version. At the very least, please give us the ability to edit emails (e.g., font size, text color, add bullets). The toolbar has disappeared and I have spent too much time already trying to figure out how to bring it back.

    Really bad redesign. You have made a lot of money from your users by selling ads. Please respect us.

    I AGREE! It looks like administrators and/or executives just HAVE to change somthing these days. DO they have to rename somthing, change appearance (like this mail system), or buy another company, or whatever, to think they'll be taken seriously? IT'S COUNTERPRODUCTIVE!
