You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
Are you looking for answers about problems with your AOL service?
I’d like to recommend that you ask AOL directly since they are best suited to help you.
For AOL support, you can visit the AOL support site or even call them at an AOL toll free number.

no I am looking to download an email inbox other than outlook express or thunderbird.
Well I have emails provided to me by my website host I just need a working inbox (like Outlook Express) to hook my emails to.
and it did not dawn on me till after i had posted that comment that help bot was a robot :)
I use Outlook. But if you’re looking for a free one, I’ve used Outlook Express and haven’t had any problems, even with sending attachments.
try gmail, free and the capacity is being increasing.
No you guys are missing the whole point! What they are asking for is an EMAIL CLIENT.
Try Googling the following words: free email client
Eudora:

This is an article from about.com. Gives you 12 of the top email clients in use today:

This may help you in deciding which email client to use, it is From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Download.com - A CNET Site - A list of EMail Clients. Nice thing about Download.com is that all applications have been pre-checked for virus’ and trojans already. It is a safe site to go to and download programs and applications. I highly recommend using this site for all software.

This is just some the listings that I got from Google.
Did you get an Email Client that worked for you? And thank you!
I am currently still trying to decide. What would you recomend for use of sending out large files? What would handle this satisfactory?

Well any of the email clients will handle as large a file as you need to have handled. My suggestion would be to go to company that
GoDaddy EMail
https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/email….
This how much GoDaddy charges for:
• 5 Email Addresses
• 1000MB Total Storage (1GB transfer of attachments, less the message and
attachment)
• 10x the Storage of Complete Email
• Ad-free
1 year: $19.99/year
2 years: $39.98 ($19.99/year)
3 years: $56.97 ($18.99/year Save 5% !)
5 years: $89.95 ($17.99/year Save 10%!)
From my research of places that will do email, GoDaddy is the most economical. That would include your own personal domain email address. Also too from what I could gather you are only limited to your storage for the.
The advantage:
Your own email address (jane . dow @ your_own_domain_name . com)
Just (for the time being) $19.99/year
Send attachments of up 1GB
All of the clients can handle what you need. Remember it is not the client that limits, it is the service that limits how much and what size the attachments can be. My advice is to stay with Microsoft Outlook Express. Get an email only host (GoDaddy) account. If you need further advice I can be reached at:
webmaster @ rickswebfactory . com, email address (just string together the aforementioned email).
If Outlook and Thunderbird are not allowing you to send attachments it could be something as simple as the system admin disallowing attachments. You’ll have to ask them to give you permission if this is what’s stopping you.
Alternatively use a web-based service like Hotmail, Googlemail, Yahoo, etc., obviously these are 3 of the biggest providers, but at times I find them the slowest for sending files, probably because of useage. You may want to use other smaller faster providers such as www.mail.com or www.inbox.com - both provide free email (and storage) services.
