How do I link my aol account to Mail?

How do I link my aol email account to Mail? I know you go to accounts then click add...then what? POP?
And what do you type in the Incoming Mail Server space?
Do I need more info other than my email address and password?
Thanks!

If you are currently running the AOL program for OS X on your Mac, try the AOL Service Assistant.

  • How to add an additional email account in Mail?

    Hi,
    I set up my main 'Hotmail' email address in 'Mail' about a year ago but have never used the Mail App since. I now have a 2nd email address (university) and it is hosted through 'Exchange Labs' which is basically Hotmail/MSN I think. I cannot check my emails in each one without logging out and logging in whilst openinging and closing several web pages which is a nuisance.
    I was told I could link these 2 accounts in Mail and would make life easier. However, I went to add an additional account and it's asking me for the server info - (mail.server.com) which I have no idea what Exchange Labs use. I looked at my settings for my Hotmail address and when I was setting it up I used my 'izymail' subscription to make it work. However when I go into Mail, it shows no new emails, or any of my old ones. I think i'll have to play around with it for a few hours before I figure out what's wrong but can anyone offer any advice?
    How to link an 'Exchange Lab' email account or make sure my existing hotmail account is still linked properly?
    Thanks in advance!

    Unless Hotmail is required under EU law to provide their full service free of charge, you'd have to have a paid Hotmail account to be able to send and receive email with Mail.
    As for the Exchange Labs, that's something your university is doing, so you'd need to call their student computing helpdesk for the settings to enter in Mail to setup your account for that. You can't link these two accounts, but you can have Mail send and receive messages through both accounts individually, assuming you meet the requirements and have them setup properly. It's not hard, you just need to get the necessary info from your university IT department, as well as have POP access to your Hotmail account, which they do charge for in the U.S.

  • AOL account in Mail (Leopard) - Cannot delete messages

    I just set up my AOL account in Mail (Leopard) and whenever I try to delete a message I receive the following; The IMAP command “UID COPY” (to Deleted Messages) failed for the mailbox “INBOX” with server error: UID COPY failed Deleted Messages: no such mailbox.
    Any ideas on why it will not delete. I am using port 993 and had it set up automatically.

    I have tried the above suggested solutions.
    Solution 1 - Deleting the com.apple.mail.plist file and moving the mail folder and then rebuild - no change
    Solution 2 - "unchecked the "Move Deleted Messages to Trash Mailbox" box under Preferences -- Accounts -- (my AOL account -- Mailbox behaviors."
    - This works for just deleting the mail but if i send a Mail from my Mail App it is not able to keep a copy of it in the "sent" category in Mail it gives the error / show there to reflect my "sent" box.
    "Mail was unable to open this mailbox on the server “imap.aol.com”.
    The server error encountered was: SELECT Failed: Can't open mailbox Sent Messages: no such mailbox"
    -I do not get this error though when i move items from within Mail from my inbox to my created folders on the AOL IMAP server.
    I believe the error lies deeper in the new Mail app itself where within its settings when writing to what it believes is the default "Folder Name" on the server for "Sent" or "Deleted" section it differs with what it really is on AOL. Cause on AOL the folder names might be different and that is why it is having trouble looking for them.

  • How to deselect "automatically set up account" in Mail?

    I have a new Mac book Pro OS X v. 10.6.7 and I don't have the option to deselect "automatically set up account" when I set up a new account in Mail. I have therefore not the option to say which type of account I want: IMAP, POP, etc. On my old MacBook this option was available.
    Does anyone have an idea how I can still deselect this option so I can choose the type of account I really wish to have?
    Thank you for any tip

  • Setup AOL account in Mail?

    I want to use mail for accessing my email from my AOL account (since I can't find AOL software for intel) and I have no idea which settings, what server to use for setup in mail. Could anyone help me?

    iluvacdc92,
    If you are able to get online, download this copy of AOL For Mac OS X.
    Or download a copy of the AOL® Client from Macintosh Downloads - AOL Downloads.
    You can also access your AOL mail from here AOL.com - Welcome to AOL, without having the software installed.

  • How do I add 2003 Exchange account to Mail using Snow Leopard

    I have my Exchange 2003 account working on my iPhone perfectly. I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and would like to add the account to Mail. When I go through the set-up it asks me different info than the iPhone did. I've tried several possibilities without success. Is Exchange 2003 functional with SL in Mail?

    I believe Mail requires 2007, the same as the EWS version of Entourage.
    Microsoft Exchange Server: Connectivity to Update Rollup 4 for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (KB952580) or later version.
    Update Rollup 4 for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (KB952580) must be applied to both the Mailbox server and the Client Access server roles.
