    Problem with aol is that they don't use industry standard protocols and hence incompatibilities arise.

    No longer a user, goodbye folks. PLEASE delete my account. Thank you

    For some reason recently when I've sent emails to people with an AOL email address, they have not got there. Don't know whether it's AOL or my ISP blocking them, or something else.

    Most ISP's block AOL mail because they're mostly spam :rolleyes:

    Contraversial but I have been with AOL for years and nothing to complain about.

    Maybe I should duck now!!!!!!!!!

    they are really rubbish having been a member with them for 3 years now i cant cancel my contract with them for 11 months they used to be better before but now they are rubbish. aol slows your pc, they block important e-mails, you cant use 2 pc at a time with internet on silver package. I dont like them anymore only 2 advantage free help, nd they upgraded my speed within 1 month so happy with that other wise useless
