I cannot send mail, check my mail or access any mail on AOL or remotely from AOL.com. All I get is an error message. I am in the middle of trying to send information for recommendation letters to med school and now my mail crashes. And of course AOL offers no support to its "free" customers, so we are just screwed. I noticed that on two different computers today when I went to log on it showed another screen name as if someone else had used my computer, but that is not possible, as both were locked up between uses by me. I guess the time is coming when I will have to switch to another e-mail provider, but I have used AOL for about ten years now so everyone has that address! This is so frustrating! :hysteric::shrugs::tdown:
 
Weird. When I could access their error message board there were numerous complaints of people getting the same result, but hubby can sign on to his, as well. Some people said they have not had access to mail for several days now. I hope AOL will fix it, as this is my main source of communicating with students and my son!

I hope you can too honey, I know it's the only way a lot of people can get hold of me as well.

You know, I've used AOL for what, 11 or so years, I've NEVER had a problem with it. So many people complain about it. Maybe I'm just holding my mouth right? LOL!
 
Mine works too.
Speedy-wow! We've been with them since we got out first computer and they offered "gateway net" then switched over to AOL and we haven't had a problem *crosses fingers* so...about 9 years. Lol.
And yeah, like Jill said, you should get the update if you haven't already...that could be part of it.
 
Okay...it is working today, and I have only had one four-hour period where mail did not update. I don't think I have seen any recent updates, but since I have a Mac and AOL doesn't work well on my Mac (again, the mail locks up) I use AOL.com 99% of the time. So fingers crossed that it keeps working.

So do I :yes:

AOL on OSX worked much, much, much better than AOL for Leopard - which has so many bugs it's ridiculous :yucky: - I can't use it at all! :cursing:
