Hi folks: 

I too am a lurker, and sign on to this great list every few months or so 
to see what is going on.  We are still using AOL as our dialup access to 
the Internet since we are unable to get DSL or other broadband here yet.  
SBC keeps promising a DSL box, but they are six months late.  

I've been using AOL and Emailer for several years.  About three months 
ago, I noticed that attachments from certain people were not being picked 
up by Emailer.  This problem seems to be limited to certain people, so 
it's possible that Emailer is not recognizing that some emails have 
attachments that need to be downloaded.  There's no way to tell except by 
logging on using AOL 4.0 or 5.0 and checking AOL's Mailbox manually, 
scanning your Read Mail list to see if there are attachments you may have 
missed.  

More recently I've had many, many problems with Emailer sending emails.  
It seems to read mail just fine, but hangs up when sending emails quite 
often.  Sometimes I end up sending the same message over and over to the 
same recipients four times before the message gets through according to 
Emailer.  I later find out that I've sent the message four times; Emailer 
just didn't recognize this as it got hung up with AOL.  We have five 
computers in our office using Emailer and AOL; two computers seem to have 
this problem.  I am using an older Titanium Powerbook and the "Hayes Auto 
Reliable" modem script in Emailer.  I am wondering if there are any newer 
CCL scripts out there to use with AOL these days, or perhaps a better 
modem script to use with Emailer and the Powerbook's internal modem.  

If I log into a separate AOL account, then send my emails using Emailer's 
TCP/IP script, then there's no problem.  

Thanks!  

Norb
