Is it possible to open AOL mail from
another Email client or application?

Well, the people using AOL mail service are often seen confused regarding this particular thing
that is using the service through any other Email client or any third party application other than
AOL, the clear answer to this confusion is it is really very easy for anyone to use or to open
AOL mail from another Email client or application.
However, in order to open AOL mail from another Email client or app the user will have to look
into the settings and will have to get some changes made, here in the blog guide we will see all
those changes well in detail that the user will have to make in the AOL mail account in order to
make it eligible to be used through another Email client or app. If one wishes to use AOL mail
through another Email client or app then first of all the user will have to get the application
or the other email client checked for compatibility.

After the compatibility check the user will have to enter specific information regarding the AOL
mail account, further, the user will have to enter the AOL IMAP server settings in order to
successfully open AOL mail in any of the third-party email clients or app.

The AOL mail IMAP settings should be as

given below:

 The AOL mail IMAP server address should be imap.aol.com
 The username should be a full AOL email address
 Next, the user should enter the AOL mail password
 The AOL mail IMAP port should be 993
 One would also need AOL mail IMAP TLS/SSL
 The AOL mail SMTP settings should be as given below:
 The SMTP outgoing server address should be smtp.aol.com
 The SMTP port should be set to 465
 There should be SSL/TLS SMTP security
 In the SMTP username, there should be a full email address
 Also, the user should enter the AOL mail password

One can also get it all done through the POP3 settings but IMAP is a better option to be used as
it very well syncs any service with the AOL mail account.

Even after all these settings are done, there are certain limitations associated with the use of
AOL mail service on another email client or application. There are certain features of the AOL
mail service that the users may not be able to use while accessing AOL mail on s ome other
Email client or application.

The AOL mail features that will not be working on another Email client
or application are listed below:

 Message Status: In the AOL mail application or the interface the user can check if a message has been
sent or not but while using AOL on some other client or application the user will not be able to do it.

 Spam: The user will not be able to use the “report spam” button as it would go inactive while the user
will use AOL mail on some other Email client or application.

 Deleted Email: Some of the email applications will not be showing deleted emails, some will show it
but will show a mark against them for deleting.

Though, these are some features that will not be working if one would use AOL mail on some
other client or app. But still, the users will be able to smoothly send and receive emails on their
AOL mail IDs through other email clients or apps.

If other than this the user feels the need to know more than in that case the user should get in
touch with the team of technicians at AOL customer care number for help lines are open all
the time.
