Millions of people had @verizon.net email addresses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2017, Verizon decided to exit the email business entirely and transferred every single account to AOL&#8217;s platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your email address stayed the same, but the servers behind it changed completely. That&#8217;s why the old Verizon server settings you might remember (or find in outdated guides online) don&#8217;t work anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And here&#8217;s the part that makes it even more confusing: AOL is owned by Yahoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So your Verizon email actually runs on Yahoo&#8217;s server infrastructure. This three-layer chain (Verizon &gt; AOL &gt; Yahoo) is exactly why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Some email apps try to set you up with a Yahoo account when you enter a @verizon.net address<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some online guides say &#8220;use AOL settings&#8221; and others say &#8220;use Verizon settings&#8221;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Server names mix AOL and Verizon domains (imap.aol.com for incoming, smtp.verizon.net for outgoing)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>None of this is a bug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s just the messy aftermath of a corporate migration that was never clearly communicated to users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"Verizon-Email-Settings-vs-AOL-Email-Settings-Are-They-Different\">Verizon Email Settings vs. AOL Email Settings: Are They Different?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve seen conflicting guides online, some saying &#8220;use AOL settings&#8221; and others saying &#8220;use Verizon settings,&#8221; here&#8217;s the simple answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They&#8217;re practically the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since Verizon email runs on AOL&#8217;s servers, the settings overlap almost completely. The only difference is branding in some of the server names.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"overflow-x:auto; margin: 20px 0; font-family: inherit;\">\n  <table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 15px; color: #1F2937;\">\n    <thead>\n      <tr style=\"background-color: #F5FAFF;\">\n        <th style=\"text-align: left; padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\"><\/th>\n        <th style=\"text-align: left; padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">Verizon Email<\/th>\n        <th style=\"text-align: left; padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">AOL Email<\/th>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/thead>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\"><strong>Incoming IMAP Server<\/strong><\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">imap.aol.com<\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">imap.aol.com<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr style=\"background-color: #FAFAFA;\">\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\"><strong>Incoming POP3 Server<\/strong><\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">pop.verizon.net<\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">pop.aol.com<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\"><strong>Outgoing SMTP Server<\/strong><\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">smtp.verizon.net<\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">smtp.aol.com<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr style=\"background-color: #FAFAFA;\">\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\"><strong>Ports<\/strong><\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">993 \/ 995 \/ 465<\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">993 \/ 995 \/ 465<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n      <tr>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\"><strong>Encryption<\/strong><\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">SSL<\/td>\n        <td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #E5E7EB;\">SSL<\/td>\n      <\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s something useful I found during testing: smtp.verizon.net and smtp.aol.com both resolve to Yahoo&#8217;s servers on the same network.

But Are Your Emails Getting Replies?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re reading this guide because you use email for work, whether that&#8217;s outreach, sales follow-ups, or client communication, there&#8217;s something worth thinking about once your setup is done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting your email to send and receive is step one. Getting your emails to land in someone&#8217;s actual inbox and not their spam folder is a completely different challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever noticed low open rates, silence from prospects, or emails that seem to disappear, the issue probably isn&#8217;t your email settings. It&#8217;s deliverability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tools like<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/?utm_source=verizonemailsettings&amp;utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Saleshandy<\/a> help you solve exactly this. You get email deliverability optimization, automated follow-up sequences, and inbox placement tracking so you can see if your emails are actually reaching people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;uploadedSrc&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.saleshandy.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/02\\\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3.webp&quot;,&quot;figureClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-block-image size-full&quot;,&quot;figureStyles&quot;:null,&quot;imgClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-image-67505&quot;,&quot;imgStyles&quot;:null,&quot;targetWidth&quot;:1648,&quot;targetHeight&quot;:948,&quot;scaleAttr&quot;:false,&quot;ariaLabel&quot;:&quot;Enlarge image: Saleshandy email automation tool&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Saleshandy email automation tool&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1648\" height=\"948\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3.webp\" alt=\"Saleshandy email automation tool\" class=\"wp-image-67505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3.webp 1648w, https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3-348x200.webp 348w, https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3-900x518.webp 900w, https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3-768x442.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3-1536x884.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3-1200x690.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.saleshandy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Saleshandy-Campaign-Creater-3-150x86.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1648px) 100vw, 1648px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge image: Saleshandy email automation tool\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"context.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"context.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re sending emails for business, it&#8217;s worth checking out.
