Sam,
The answer to your question is simple...
AOL users are Windows users. And Windows users are too lazy to change
the defualt setting of "Send forwarded message as eMail attatchment".
Hence.... the multiple attachments. (every winbloze user along the way
just clicked "forward" and there-by created a new attachment to the
message which alredy contained 37 attachments)
You see, the other default setting in that "crap software" is...
"Display eMail attachments In-line"
So, an AOL user doesn't have 37 attachments to "open".
Their AOL software automatically opens _all_ of them and displays them.
(so all they need to do is scroll 37 miles down the page to get to the
original message)<vbg>
