  1. Search function is close to useless

    With classic aol I could find everything - search pulled up mails with a few words or person’s name. Now, if I don’t remember the email address, the exact name or the exact subject of an email I have received, I can’t find it. Have searched for emails I received or sent only 2 days ago and can easily spend more than 30 minutes trying to figure out which words will pull up the email. Sometimes I search using the name of a person I just wrote to and it does NOT show up. I have so many emails that…

  2. Offline capture of mail prior to deleting

    Dump mail to a file before permanently deleting from the email system. Provide some better-than-text format that would free up AOL disk space and allow personal data to be preserved.

  3. Compose vs Send

    These two buttons should have different colors. For me, at least, it's easy to mix the two up, and having Send on the bottom of the email screen is counterintuitive.

  6. type size is toosmall. I cannot see to read it. Why can't we adjust it back to a normal size that is easy to read?

    This is not a new idea. The type size on email is too small to read easily. If this does not get fixed, or a choice come available, I will be forced to go back to gmail. !!!!

  7. Send//Save button

    Having the /Send button at the bottom makes it difficult, especially when there is a lot of text in the message. Please restore the Send button to the top. Also, it is dangerous to have the Save button next to the Delete button, as one could easily press Delete when intending to press Send.

  8. forwarded mails

    Hallo.

    Warum wurde denn das Layout für "Weiterleiten" von Emails geändert ?

    Wenn man Emails wieterleitet, erscheinen jedesmal "vertikale Striche auf der gesamten linken Seite" der weitergeleiteten Email, was bisher nie der Fall war.

    Es sieht höchst unprofessionell aus, wenn man nun eine weitergeleitete Nachricht / Mail erneut weiterleitet, und ggf. ein 3. mal weiterleitet, so dass unzählige vertikale Striche seitlich der Email erscheinen (dementsprechend wird der Text der weitergeleiteten Mail von Nachricht zur Nachricht immer schmaler, da linkseitig vertikale Striche erscheinen !).

    So kann ich nun keine Geschäft-Mails mehr weiterleiten, das sieht fürchterlich und höchst unprofessionell aus !

    Können…

  11. Previous content

    Using aol mail online in iPhone (app loads way too slowly to use functionally) I can no longer see the rest of the thread. It says “show trimmed content” but nothing is there, and where is show preview content. I want to see the original message and can no longer do that.

  12. Sorting Mail

    There needs to be a way to have the mail displayed automatically from OLD TO NEW, when signing in/reading emails on AOL. Also, there needs to be a way to sort by SUBJECT in the folders. This option disappeared with the so-called "upgrade" of the new AOL email.

    Why do we need to do the picture Prove You Are Human and then also get a code to sign in.? You are making checking my email more and more difficult. Redesigned AOL page is awful.

    I have old emails that are extremely important to me. I do not want to pay because I am 88 years old and on a limited budget. Surely you can allow me to keep this free email account! This account is like a diary to me and I know that many senior customers are as disappointed as
    I am.

  17. Times vs. Dates of Email

    Please restore the clock times that have been replaced by dates in the listings for sent/received emails. Times posting are essential for many documentation protocols and increasing the number of clicks to obtain this information waste precious time.
