How do I get my Outlook mail working again if I cannot generate a new password. I accidently added a folder under the inbox and when I tried to delete I could not. I then lost connection to AOL and could not connect to pull my email. I went to generate a password but I keep getting this feature not available right now.
How can I get my Outlook to pull my email from AOL again?

2023-02-04T02:54:32+00:00 Here is a workaround:
If YOU did not delete the existing 3rd party password on the AOL website or still have one on the AOL website for the 3rd party address i.e. ******@verizon.net, etc.,,
Use the password sniffer above on your computer. Find the existing, passwords for AOL/Outlook. Any for the same address for any computer will work. It is only address specific, not computer specific. Do not delete any passwords on AOL.
Good Luck.

2023-02-04T12:49:31+00:00 I finally was able to generate a one time password on AOL Don't ask me why it worked except to try for multiple days. I just needed to use the aol.com rather than mail.yahoo.com on the config.. Hope this works when you give it a try. I am still going to use gmail but wanted to be able to view verizon.net mail just in case.

2023-02-05T19:32:55+00:00 So - today, on Feb 5, I was able to generate an app specific password successfully. It took 4 days of systematically logging in to the AOL website but it did work.
Hope this helps other people!
