option to delete multiple emails option removed
Removing option to multiply delete email is a childish attempt to force people to use the new version.

Hi there. You can delete multiple emails at once. Please use the scroll feature/bar from the right side of the email list to get to the end of the page and more emails will load and you'll be able to select all. If you need additional help navigating 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.
Thank you,
AOL team

Allow user to select number vs a random (usually high) number.

Sure would be nice to be able to select all the emails I wish to delete at once by holding down shift & page end and it go ALL THE WAY to the actual end of the emails you need as opposed to having to select the box and page down on the scroll bar over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

Delete mail in sections by date, month or year. Right now you can only delete all or one by one. You should have a box next to DAY, MONTH and even YEAR that you can then select and be to delete them for the given period.

MAKE ALL ACTIONS THAT DELETE OR CLEAR OUR INBOX, A ONE CLICK OPTION. TO DELETE OR MOVE. NOT SEARCH THROUGH ACTOINS, FIND THE DELETE THEN SELECT INDIVIDUAL EMAILS. INSTEAD HAVE ONE BUTTON TO THE LEFT OF EACH EMAIL, A D AND AND M MAYBE, SO I GO DOWN, CLICK D ONE TIME, AND THAT IS DELETED. IN THE TRASH FOLDER, ADD A DELETE ALL FEATURE. THIS WAY, I AM NOT HOLDING ON TO 35k EMAILS AS I AM RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE OF ISSUES WITH A TWO YEAR OLD COURT CASE, WHERE I AM AFRAID TO DELETE ALL THE SPAM AND CLEAN MY INBOX UP INCASE I ACCIDENTALLY DELETE AN EMAIL I WILL NEED LATER. ID BE ABLE TO KEEP MY IMPORTANT THINGS ORGANIZED BETTER IF I COULD CLEAN MY INBOX UP BUT I LEFT THE INTERNET FOR A MONTH, SPAM OVERRAN MY INBOX AND IVE NEVER HAD THE TIME IT TAKES TO GO ONE AT A TIME TO DELETE, TO SORT ETC.

Now I have to risk deleting all my emails if I don't uncheck every other one when I really only needed to delete 25.

In old format I could select all mail in a folder and perform an action. In new format, there is a Select All button but it only selects the next mail items. So if I have a 1000 mails in my trash folder, I have to perform the operation (select all, delete, are you sure?) ten times to delete them all. Same is true if I want to move all my inbox mail to another folder. In old format, I could do these operations for all the mail in a folder. Please create a button Select All which actually selects all!

Why is it that I can not clean out my unread folder and my trash folder? It won't delete all and now it won't delete at all.

Again, go back to the old version! If I had several e-mails from today in the inbox that I wanted to delete, I could hit 'delete' above todays e-mails and they would all be checked and I could delete them in one click. Now, if I hit the 'delete' box and I have e-mails from other days in the inbox it checks "everything" in the inbox. If I want to only delete messages from today, I must individually check every message, then hit delete. This is absolutely stupid and WAY TO MUCH WORK.
GO BACK TO THE OLD FORMAT!!!
