Email with OUTLOOK

bellvk

Just got off the phone with AOL. I am attmepting to configure OUTLOOK for the 10th or 11th time. It works for a minute, then it stops working.

AOL informed me tech support will only help me if I buy AOL tech support. According to service rep, Verizon gave us "BASIC" plan that does not include tech support!

It would n't be a big deal, but what about my 16+ years of emails and archived emails?

When I switch mail programs, I lose all that.
