How Would You Define "Everything"?


Loss of eMails:

No. The eMail is stored on AOL's servers. So, no eMail will be rid of by just removing the account.


Provide a Screenshot:

As for this error you keep getting what does it read? Providing a screenshot of this message would most certainly help. Important: Block out any personal info(i.e. names) by covering it with rectangles and such through use of the Photos app.
