I Have An Email Issue

Awhile back i changed my email address with my CL account . I just assumed that when I would be sending out emails in response to ads I would be sending them through my reg. email address. However, when the screen comes up to send mail it is not my reg. mail screen . I'm assuming this is some kind of web mail , please excuse my ignorance. I am not very savvy. I do not use my AOL address anymore and therefore this has really become a problem , considering when ppl want to respond to an email from me , they get an outgoing email from my AOL account saying have changed addresses and they automatically become suspicious of some kind of scam. NOT TO MENTION , I have had 2 ads recently become removed from CL for some bizarre reason , they were just deleted. I am so confused about this whole process at this point , I just feel like not using the site at all , but that would be a shame , because , before I changed my email address , I was enjoying it VERY much and had success BUYING and selling quite a few things. PLEASE HELP !!!!!!
