When you say "none of the links work", can you be a little bit more specific? Like, what exactly happens? Your computer shuts off or something like that? :-) I've heard that AOL has a strange definition of "customer service" where their firewall dumps emails that it thinks might be junk mail, and they don't bother to tell anybody. Maybe the reconfigured it to "bounce" the emails instead of delete them so you at least get something back for your trouble. I've heard that this filtering is based on a number of factors, including specific email domains (eg., hotmail.com, yahoo.com), and getting a batch of emails submitted within some small time window that have matching Subject headers and/or content. -David Chris Doyle wrote: > Hi! > Ok, here the deal, I am using the library mail.inc, sending out email (HTML > formatt), It is all working fine, execpt for anyone using AOL.
