I have two verizon.net email accounts. I used Thunderbird to download them to my laptop.

One email stopped working a while ago, now my other one also stopped working yesterday.

I do not have a cell phone so I can not do that 2 version account verification (or whatever it is called on aol).

I am happy to give you details if you will HELP. Laptop, Windows 10, Google Chrome, Thunderbird 91.5.1 (64-bit)

AOL has NO way online to get help unless you pay and upgrade. VERY bad customer service. They should allow emailing when people have problems.

I am thinking of dumping both AOL/Verizon and Thunderbird. TIA Elsie

If you log on to your aol account and select 'security', you can generate an app password. I do not think you need two-way setup.

I don't think two-step is needed. The website indicates it is not. 

https://login.aol.com/account/security   Once you sign in, you can generate an app password.  Good luck.
