I just saw this for the first time ever just now. I haven't had ANY
problems getting my AOL mail with Emailer in years. Actually, I got some
ok earlier today!
I'm going to sit right down & write myself a letter

And see if the problem is transitory.
Yep! It doesn't happen when I have AOL mail, only if I don't have any. At
least that's what my very limited testing seems to show. I guess htere
are several ways to deal with that. I could keep sending myself email to
eliminate the err, and I could write a mail action to always trash that
"special email" or reply to it to keep it in play or something.
Best,
