Can't recieve OR send messages from AOL

Hey guys.

I made an AOL account a really long time ago when my dad used to pay for AOL dial up but he doesnt any more and i stopped using the account. One day I had to reset my password for something and the old AOL mail happened to be the email it was sent to so when I logged in to the AOL account and when to the inbox it said "mailbox unavailable due to temporary maintenance".

I had read that to fix this you had to send a message to the account for the inbo to be working again but when I tried it told me that THE SCREENNAME DID NOT EXIST. Furious I tried sending an email from the AOL account to my hotmail account and the same exact thing happened. It told me tat my hotmail account did not exist. I tried it with a couple more emails and they all said the same thing. If ANYONE could help me it would be much appreciated.
