Show the full email address in new mail to be able to identify spam before opening
Show the full email address in new mail to be able to identify spam before opening. Currently, we do not see enough of the email address to determine if it is legitimate or spam email. This seems like a “no brainer” but, yet, AOL has not figured it out yet. At least with the old AOL mail, we were able to adjust heading widths to our liking. That feature is gone! Why?

separate email window
Bring back the option to open an email in a new window. It is a useful feature that aids productivity.
I cannot believe how someone in the design team thought it was a good idea to remove!

Stop the automatic link previews!
New email automatically inserts link previews when composing. That's not how email works. It isn't a blog post. Turn that nonsense off!

It is NOT an IMPROVEMENT when you REMOVE THE BASIC FUNDAMENTALS USED to Write an Email.
IN OLD AOL EMAIL, WE HAD...
A long list of FONTS to choose from
We had more options on SIZE OF FONT
Old AOL had a larger choice of COLORS of FONT to choose with the OPTION to ADD PERSONAL COLORS
We could place an email IN A NEW WINDOW!
We could CONTROL the SIZE of the WINDOW and the PLACEMENT
****When SENDING an Email, we typed the first few letters of the email addy and the EMAIL APPEARED. NOW a NAME appears. If we are writing an email, the NAME SHOULD NOT APPEAR IN THE SENDER BOX ....THE EMAIL…

spam count display
Display the folder count against the Spam Folder -
The Spam Folder used to show the count of email in it. It currently does not. As a direct result, combined with AOL's apparently more aggressive spam filtering, messages have been accumulating in my spam folder without my realizing it. That means I have missed important messages because I did not have any reason to look in the spam folder!
Please, put the count of messages back in the left column for the Spam Folder.266th ranked -

contact list add comma separated email address
Allow multiple, comma-separated email address to be pasted into a contact list (WHY, in a LIST, implying the need for multiple email addresses, as opposed to a CONTACT, would AOL limit the add address field to MANUALLY TYPED ADDRESSES ONE AT A FREAKING TIME?????????????????) Jeez Cmon

Spam Filter Broken
What has happened to the Spam filter? Legitimate email is getting inexplicably place in Spam while in the middle of an on-going conversation. On 25 April, a person we were communicating with via email, sent us a follow up message. This message went to Spam without our knowledge. The person sent 3 more follow up messages, each one expressing an increased level of frustration. We also sent 3 messages because we had not heard back from the person. Today we received a very snarky email in our inbox from that same person COMPLAINING WE WERE NOT ANSWERING HER EMAILS. At…

MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO FORWARD INCOMING AOL EMAILS TO ANOTHER PLATFORM
It seems that every other email service allows their incoming emails to be forwarded to another email account. (Example: I want to be able to have one of our old, mostly un-used AOL emails for our nonprofit forwarded to a gmail that we do use, so we won't miss any emails that happen to come in.) Please.

Allow an email to be pinned to top of email inbox
If you have a time sensitive/important email, allow it to be pinned or moved to the top of the email inbox so it doesn't get shuffled down the list by new incoming emails.

sort by "newest on top" displays only a small subset of all emails in inbox
Only for my account, when emails are sorted by newest on top (the default), only a small subset of the emails are displayed.
The subset of emails is not just the latest ones but are spread out across multiple years.
If I reverse the sort to oldest on top, then all the emails show up.
This issue could be similar to issue ranked #325: What happened to all of the mail in my inbox?

Return to your "PREVIOUS FORMAT". A "frustrated customer" speaking at you AOL.
Return your wider varied selection of stationary and font.
Increase the size of the emojis to fit the page/letter you're inserting them in. Presently they are so small you can't tell what the emoji is that has been added to the letter or comment.
Your so-called "Large" font in the settings are still difficult to read.
We should be able to increase the size and boldness to what is comfortable for the user.
On December 5th, 2023 I commented on your Lack of Holiday and Seasonal themes. Returning your large selection of themes, stationary, font selection and the above items…411th ranked -
give option to dispense with "Unread" folder
Under my Inbox folder on the left-side menu in email, there is another folder called Unread.
Please give users an OPTION to completely DELETE that folder. It's of no use to me and probably many others.913th ranked -
I have to log in Everytime I come to view my mail!
Everytime I click on my AOL tab, to see my mail, I have to login! It’s redundant AND irritating, as I don’t log out!. Please create an option
for us to bypass (in the option tab) this login exercise, especially if we don’t log out!326th ranked
