That’s due to webmail not requiring further authentication.
Look under Settings>Mail>Accounts>Choose the AOL account & then Account, is there any option to enter a different password?
If no then you may need to delete the account & set it up again manually so you can enter the app specific password.

AOL now requires 2-step authentication plus an app specific password so this is most likely why the mail app is stating incorrect details.
