Doh! Sorry, my bad -- that's actually what I meant.

Sure, unsent message are in your Outbox, so you got to check this folder

Nope, this is fine. You can remove them without any issues. Beside you
will lose your message and probably need to write it again. You can move
them to Drafts instead of deleting.

Sure, sending from your AOL account won't be possible without the port
assigned...


So, did you re-check all the account settings? Do you need the domain as

available after checking?
