macOS Mail problems with AOL.
System Configuration:
iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015)
4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
macOS Monterey
Version 12.7.6 (21H1320)
Email Problems:
Using macOS Mail client with AOL (not really my choice). I have a feeling that there is a glitch between my Mail client and the AOL Server. (There is no problem if I use AOL Email.)
Most times, after opening and closing the first email using Mail, opening a second email displays the preview, but opening the body of the email shows a blank page with no text. See examples below.

- Mail Email Body (blank page with no text):
However, the email text is available on AOL.
Closing and reopening Mail will solve this problem, but, then closing an email and opening another email, will then manifest the same problem again.
If I look at an email using AOL and then use Mail to try and print the email, I get a message that says:
which, of course, never stops “generating”. Closing and reopening will temporarily fix this problem.
Sometimes, a deleted email in Mail will bounce back saying it can’t be moved.
I also get a fair number of “Cannot Send Using AOL Server” messages.
Mail’s “Get Mail” function is often very slow.
Now occasionally, the AOL Email webpage freezes. I have to refresh the page to get it working again.
Well, here’s a wealth of symptoms. Any suggestions?
