Not sure which but My husband didn't seem to notice a loss in contacts when we deleted and the re-added his AOL account. Either they stay in your phone contacts if they are linked and are there now or they just come back easily when you add the email account again. If I delete my account off my Z10, then I'd have to relink all those contacts when I readd the account, correct?(sorry thought the reply would attach to this but it didn't so it will be a repeat answer.)
One of the suggestions was to delete and readd the AOL account. I've had my Z10 since late August, and I just started having the same problem (continually requesting password) with my AOL account within the past week no problem with my other accounts (Gmail, Yahoo, and Microsoft). Apologies to Oofa here as well for tacking too much on to a reply to you, I got carried away and lazy, should have made separate posts, sorry. Thanks all for constructive questions, talk and info! Also sorry for my fumbling through posting here, as the label says I'm a "newbie" here and don't quite have this forum figured out. I for one want to feel like I have it resolved rather than covered with a band-aid for now.

If anyone else comes up with info or a permanent fix (not sure if the removing and adding fix will last, we shall see) please update us. I also came across something that said AOL was taken over by Yahoo (or something like that) and settings might change.I didn't pay close attention or read it all at the time because it seemed like this was months ago and my problem was new but maybe I will go search that out again and look closer.

So I am wondering if maybe there has been a software update or something recently that changed something with how BBos works with AOL mail.just a thought since several of us seem to have developed this problem with AOL in the last few days but others have had the same problem with other mail clients in the past (our gmail account is working fine on the phone).

I didn't have to do this when I set the phone up originally in July or Aug I was able to just enter the email address and password and the phone set the rest up, I think it even prompted me for AOL calendar too which it didn't do this time (not that he uses it anyway). Interestingly after deleting it it didn't do the quick set up when I added it again and I had to go into "advanced" (or something like that, I forget the exact term) where you can impute the details and had to enter some server info that was missing for some reason. Re-entering or setting the password in settings throughout the day was really getting frustrating (though worked to get mail when needed) especially given that email was the reason for having the Blackberry so I did delete the account and then re-enter it an hour or so ago. I still haven't found an answer for it though since some of the fixes there seemed to be more Google specific, I think. This just started in the last couple of days for us and when I started doing some research I found a thread from back in Aug that described the exact same problem (notice and all) but they were having it with Goggle and Gmail. Usually only when I boot up.Maybe we have more than one issue causing the same problem then.
