I only use POP to send and receive email for my XXXXXX@verizon.net addresses.  Do I need to change anything in my email program to continue using them with this AOL "migration"?

After you migrate,make sure that you upgrade any other programs you use with info(PWD) you changed during migration.

I migrated successfully early March.

All Folders and Contacts were moved over for me.

PLEASE report your experience after your migration.

73's for now.

What is involved in "migration"?  The email they sent me had a link, but there was nothing there about changing anything, just a web interface to my email account.

If you go here:

https://webmail.verizon.com/signin/LdapBind.jsp#mail_Emails_INBOX

What do you get now ?

This is what I get now..

Good! You have already registered for AOL Mail.

For quicker access go to mail.aol.com and sign in using your new AOL username/password.

Don't forget to bookmark the website for future one click access to your email

I deleted the cookies in my browser and the original link they sent me in the email notice then took me to the migration setup pages.  What a pain in the butt!  Am I going to have to do this for all of my sub-accounts?

Pop mail still seems to work with the servers pop.verizon.net and pop.mail.yahoo.com, but is that going to change at some point?

treat each subaccount migration as you did for the main account.

As of now no words on any changes to those using verizon/yahoo email set up.

I have never been personally involved with verizon/yahoo email.
