Does anyone know how to add my AOL email account?

When I click on the AOL icon on "Select an email account to add" and follow the prompts, I get a message saying "system is unable to support the request".  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.  It worked once I stopped trying to use the AOL icon and set it up as “Other Email”.

Are you entering it Correctly!  I don't use AOL my Self but i did have a time getting Yahoo to go the First few Times  Sometimes you have to be what do i want to call it.  an try again!  You could do this Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > then Choose All Scroll Down to (Email Accounts) only an then go in there an Clear the Cache Only if you Clear Data you may have to re-inter your GMail Account again as Well. So i would only clear the Cache an then hit the Home Button Try to Re-enter your  AOL Account Give this a Try.. Let me Know the Results  Ok !

Glad to hear, I learned a while back that it usually works better to manually setup a account than using the auto option...

Glad to help...
