AOL email address

What's wrong with AOL mail? It's been fine for me as a free e-mail provider. Clean webmail interface, app passwords for IMAP and SMTP (Though Thunderbird can also do OAuth2, apparently. It doesn't work for me.), 1TB of storage. You just have to opt-out of marketing e-mails. They WILL send them. A lot of them. I'd consider it better than Gmail.

Everything changes I guess. Good to hear that it's solid now. There was a time when AOL was not ahead of the pack and was kind of seen as a remnant of the dial-up era and one of those old-folk companies.
