PLEASE NOTE: this is NOT a concern if you use AOL 3.0, 4.0 or 5.0. This is only if you have AOL 6.0 or plan to upgrade to 6.0 To make a long story short, the new AOL 6.0 sends all email with "HTML formatting" and does not have an option to send just plain text. What happens then is all email sent from an AOL 6.0 account to a smoe.org mailing list is bounced (rejected) by the listserve software and is then forwarded onto the list owner for fixing/approval. The list owner then gets the post and has to do some magic and then send the post on. This of course will result in a delay for your post in reaching the list. So, if you now have AOL 6.0 and send a post and are perplexed as to why it did not show up yet or showed up hours later, you now know why. This is causing problems on other list serves across the planet, and AOL has been made aware of the problem. In the mean time, the owners of smoe.org are working on a solution with some software they can install that would automatically fix the offending AOL email and send it on without it bouncing. In the mean time, if you are active on this list and have been considering upgrading to version 6.0 of AOL, you might want to hold off a while until this problem is rectified (I will let you know when that is) Mike - list owner ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2000 14:24:04 -0800 (PST) From: shell Subject: ET: help Dear Yall, I'm asking for prayers for myself. I'm going through a lot of crap at the moment. I'm scared senseless. And if one of these problems doesn't clear itself, there's honestly nothing i can do about it... and it's a major thing. thanks so much everyone i love you all Court ------------------------------ End of eda-thoughts-digest V3 #376 **********************************
