Verizon FiOS → Re: AOL Mail: Update your Verizon.net email security settings

>> So I think that means we can't use smtp.aol.com after that time.

I don't think that is the case and while that's just a gut level guess on my part, my reasoning is that--according to your screen shot in your initial post--you were trying to use smtp.verizon.net and I think that from Nov. 7th forward, we will need to use smtp.aol.com (not verizon.net).

The interesting thing is that I have received an email from aol but it was for my compuserve.com email account (which uses pop.csi.com and smtp.csi.com). I have not received an email from aol about my verizon email account.

I think the email(s) are not written particularly clearly but the email to my compuserve.com email account, had a link to information on the appropriate server info and since my compuserve.com email account uses the settings specified in that help link, I think I'm good to go...'-}}

>>I didn't know that CompuServe even still existed or provided email services. Congrats on your award!

LOL!! And...it's the original numeric account--I joined Compuserve in 1991...'-}}

When aol subsumed Compuserve, I really appreciated that aol allowed us to keep our Compuserve email accounts and has continued to support them...
