Connect your Verizon.net Email email to Claude & ChatGPT

verizon.net addresses still work, they just do not live at Verizon anymore: the mailboxes moved to AOL years ago. With an AOL app password, anymailmcp.com connects your verizon.net inbox to your assistant.

Before you connect

What you need

Your verizon.net address

Keep the full @verizon.net address as your username. Behind the scenes it is an AOL Mail account now, which is why the IMAP server is imap.aol.com.

An AOL app password (required)

AOL rejects normal passwords over IMAP. Sign in at login.aol.com/account/security with your verizon.net address, generate an app password, and paste it here.

Verizon.net Email works best with a revocable app password.

Under the hood

Server settings we auto-fill

You never type these. We detect them from your address and verify them live against Verizon’s servers — they’re here for the curious.

Server settings
IMAP
imap.aol.com:993
SMTP
smtp.verizon.net:465
Encryption
SSL/TLS
Calendar: email-only

Verizon.net mail, like AOL, exposes no CalDAV calendar for third-party clients. Email works fully.

Let Claude read your Verizon inbox

One URL in your assistant and you’re connected in about a minute. Free forever until you outgrow it — no card, no trial clock.
