[Ham-Computers] Re: plain text in AOL

Duane,

Do you know any method that involves the use of the
AOL software?  The vast majority of AOL users are on
AOL because they don't want to be bothered with a
separate browser, so most of them don't use Netscape,
Explorer or any other browser.  The email facility is
built in to the largish chunk of software with which
AOL infects your machine.
