If you feel that your mailbox is working too slowly, one reason may be the number of emails you have in your Inbox or New folder.
To help better manage your mail load, here are a couple of simple tips you might consider to speed things up.
First tip... set up saved folders for your older mail under My Folders.
Let's say you get a lot of Facebook notifications, for example. Why not create a dedicated folder to keep the ones you want. This will keep them on hand, but reduce the amount of mail in your mailbox. Give it a try...

Second tip... remove large amounts of unwanted mail by bulk deleting. There are two quick ways to delete multiple emails. Here's how...
You can select a range of emails by clicking on the checkbox next to the first (or last) message, hold Shift, and then select the checkbox next to the last (or first) message.
Or you can click on the uppermost checkbox located below the toolbar to select all emails in your mailbox.

After selecting the desired range, simply click the Delete button.
By taking a couple simple steps, you can improve the speed of your mailbox.
Thanks for choosing AOL Mail!

I have to log in more than once as a rule and sometimes even more as I am directed to AOL Canada. I prefer to stay on the original site...less complicated.
I agree with you, any website or email address which tries to make things difficult for you or any nusers must be forgotten with no hesitation at all, as there should have artificial intelligence to learn the truth of human stupidity in making artificial intelli
gence more stupid and idiotic, it is just too bad indeed!

hi
ok
thankyou for your help, many concerns over rather simple use of my computer; slow, can't get connected, many others but none of great need commercially or professionally. that's after i get over about 2 yrs of trying. thanks again. ll mason, 8045984229.
Do a copy and paste into your word processor, then print it out. good Luck !
Why does AOL want to change my password every few months and screen name???
I think it is imitating you to protect your privacy. It is a good idea to change your password every 90 days, maybe you forgot and your computer is reminding you.
hey whazz up my friendo
hi im new to this
Is there any way to download my folders and older saved emails to a CD or zip drive? This would clean up a lot of my space. I just don't want to lose any of them.
Thanks.
Hi, you will need to use the Aol Client software.
Download it, and then you can follow this link:

Or just look for the title of "
How do I save an e-mail directly on the computer? " in Help.AOl.com
Hey bog!
If anyone sends you an answer to your question about how to copy your folder E-mail to a CD, I would like to hear from you.

I am getting a message that says I need to contact aol to upgrade my email storage. Is this really from you or is it a SPAM?

I cannot get my mail at all. It keeps telling me that an error has occured and to try back later. but I still cAN'T GET MY MAIL. Every since you sent the email on storage space, this has happened. I have deleted just about all my old email and nothing helps.
