    Outlook and Verizon Mail on AOL


    Sometime back Verizon gave their e-mail operations to AOL. All has been working well until earlier this week when suddenly the IMAP folders would not sync. Checking online, all that could be found was to reset the IMAP settings in Outlook. After doing this multiple times, uninstalled/reinstalled Office 365. Seems Outlook wants to go to Yahoo servers instead of AOL. Using manual repair, attempts to change them to AOL were not successful, kept reverting back to AOL.
    I contacted AOL, response was to reset the IMAP settings, which I've done many times.
    Finally in a web search I found two threads in answers.microsoft.com about others with the same issues. AOL was giving them the run around as well.
    Finally I got another response from AOL:
    "Good Day,

    Thank you for getting back to us.

    Based on the information provided, please note that you can encounter this situation due to the recent updates made to our website.

    Unfortunately, at the moment, there is no option available that allows to make any changes to the specific settings.

    Given the situation, you have the option to install and use the AOL App or you can access your account, by going to mail.aol.com.

    We hope this information will be of use. Please let us know if we may assist you in the future.

    Best regards,

    George

    Obviously AOL has no intention of resolving this issue. Not good news for Outlook users.

    For those interested the threads I'm following are:

  3. Outlook trouble in Windows 10 handling AOL email

    Hi Dave,

    • Are you referring to Windows 10 Mail App?
    • If yes, then is that an additional account?

    If your AOL is an additional account in Windows 10 Mail App, then I suggest you to remove the account and reconfigure it and check the behavior. And if your AOL is primary a account, please get back to us for further assistance.

    I suggest you to try the steps provided in the link below and check.

    Thank you

    Outlook rejects aol server

    Outlook not connected in Microsoft Exchange Server

    I am new to Exchange Server 2003 and I have a friend with a network server that I don't know how to re-establish a user to the network. I moved one of his non used computers to this station and now when I try to log in the user I get the error that the name can't be verified because Outlook is not connected or online. This computer used to be online with a different user. Can anyone tell me the steps to check this? Thanks.
