I am receiving, but cannot reply or send new emails through my AOL account on TB.

I am receiving, but cannot reply or send new emails through my AOL account on TB. I just keep getting the little status window showing progress, but nothing happens--I just see a progress bar trying to send. I also checked the "sent" mailbox to see if anything shows up there. It doesn't.

It's not an AOL issue because I can send emails via my iPhone's mail app. Is there a fix for this problem?

I too am having the same problem. It just started today. Your right about AOL working as I can access through the AOL app and can send an receive through the phone.

I loaded some Windows updates yesterday but it seems like it was working after that. Maybe not!!

I work on a Mac, so different issue.

Mail seems to be going through today. It was fine until about 4 PM yesterday and then stalled for hours. Glad it's back up.
