Re: AOL 6.0 idea

["Greg Pokorny" <grepok@hotmail.com>]

I ran a test on this, without success.  It appears that the message still 
has 2 parts.  A plain text part, and then a repeat of the message with HTML 
tags.

The only thing I have found, so far, that works is using the AOL on-line 
mail sevice (i.e not the one in the client) to send in plain text.
