The status notification messages that appear in the top center of the reading pain when you perform some action e.g. selecting more than one message, moving a message, deleting a message, etc. obscure the action buttons (Move, Delete, etc.) which requires the user to either A. wait until the message disappears on it's own or B. click to dismiss it if the user wants to use one of the action buttons.

Scenario: I have a bunch of emails in the inbox from a newsletter that I want to select all, mark as read, and then delete. Here are the steps right now:

1. Click the "select all" checkbox at the top of the reading pane
2. Observe the status toast message "X messages selected" appear
3. Either wait or click to dismiss the toast message
4. Click the "More" button and select "Mark as read"
5. Observe the status toast message "X messages marked as read" or something similar
6. Again either wait or click to dismiss the toast message
7. Click the Delete button
8. Yet another toast message, covering the action buttons, appears

This seems like bad UX, as it doubles (or more) the amount of time it takes me to complete my intended goal. I am sure there are additional scenarios to be found where the toast message interrupts the happy path of the user getting the thing done they're trying to get done.

On the web site, we need a way to disable using [Ctrl]-[Enter] keystroke to send an email. This can be inadvertently hit while writing an email, because [Enter] is used for new paragraphs and [Ctrl] is used for copy-paste. At the very least there should be a confirmation prompt before sending. When a half-written email suddenly sends itself, it is a horrible experience. Please prioritize this improvement.

I bet I said never see this posted in the community because most people using AOL hate AOL because of this

Then I get a nonexisting response posted by admins. I am ready to sue you over this. 180,000 emails I can’t reduce? This makes me vulnerable to mistakes and hacking

I can’t increase the numbers if emails to remove, nothing that your bot suggests exists. I want the basic from before with the alphabetized emails.
Why are you all so backwards. This is not progress this is sabotage

Give me back my old set up so I can unload 100,000 emails. This is ridiculous. What is wrong with you people

When viewing mail on desktop/windows 10 - I will select "read" and a small rectangle appears to either say okay or undo or something like that. The problem is, this rectangle is OVER the rest of the options. After reading I want to MOVE the message, but first have to get rid of that little rectangle. Annoying as anything.

If I could permanently move it out of the way so it doesn't cover the options, that would be great!

Go Back to Basic Mail so it actually works

I can't access my email. This is unacceptable. It's my main provider. You absolutely can not have your mail servers down for any reason.

Nothing will load, move. page not available, can't fetch...... Am I going to HAVE to switch to Gmail? Can't check any folders. Have you been hacked??????

emails won't load, won't delete, can't look at different folders. What the ****? Get "can't fetch" Error, error, error

Go back to immediately to the old system otherwise we go

Only when I use or check aol, my computer gets very slow. No other email or site gives me that problem.

GO BACK TO CLASSIC I DID NT CHANGE ANYTHING> I HATE CHANGE, ASK MY WIFE!

This new format is terrible - need sender information, not reply or do not reply.
When hovering, cannot see complete sender information

The Classic View so much better. It's a mare to find anything with the new layout and why the blue dots? Bold is enough to show unread and this is 2 years on from the change and still hate it.
I have important stuff now, I need to see important emails easily and the page is so cluttered-cannot see anything. looks better if reduced to 50% then cannot read . Looks like a jumble sale.
May need to consider Gmail as a better option

who deleted the search facility from aol mail?

why did you remove the search old mail tool...? often expected mail, like warranties are sent later. How do I find my recent warranty from asurion?
