That's hilarious. "nexus 7" isn't an operating system or a browser. And most of those OS are really old . And web os products don't even exist anymore.

An elderly woman in my community calls me up (resident expert around here apparently) and even downloading Outlook and signing in with her AOL account on her Lumia 900 she gets no AOL emails.

Is there a Windows Phone mail app that does work with AOL so she can continue getting emails?

I really want to help her out because she does not want to get a new phone.
