[Woodcarver] Mauras Messages

Hi Charles,

Looks like you can't receive mail either at the address you give.
Maybe you have some junk mail filters on?  My apologies to the list;
I tried to take this thread off list but no go.

That will probably make a big difference.  I don't have any experience
with the digest.  I have no problem with your messages.  This one came
in plain text so your e-mail client is replying in the format of the
message received.  If you get the digest, it would be of even more
benefit if everyone posted in plain text.

This will probably never happen.  AOL does what AOL wants to do.  Many
have complained about it but they are not inclined to do anything
about it.  They have said they surveyed people and they like and want
the HTML e-mail so they will supply only HTML e-mail.

Yes, Microsoft is another company that does things the way they WANT
to do it and without regard to the customers.   I have a Hotmail
account also but do not use it for posting; too much spam coming in
there.  They have strong filters but they block out everything if
turned on high.  I didn't know they had a Beta version, not that I
would use it anyway.
