There isn't anything that can be done on this end to fix this--a lot of ISPs have blocked all email from the AOL.com domain. If you are using an AOL address and you would like for everyone to see your messages you might want to set up another email address, sub it tot the list, and send from that address.

Charlie Ware, who died this week, was a one-time property tycoon and investor who put money into RM in the early days, including funding their first van.B Later he ran the Morris Minor Centre in Bath.B http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/11736385/Charlie-Ware-car-restorer - -obituary.html I went in that Morris Minor garage when it was on the Lower Bristol Road in Bath, which is close to where I live, about 25 years ago without ever knowing the Roxy connection. The Commander has mentioned their association in a couple of subsequent articles. Five weeks without a post for Avalon, folks...is it finished?
