Obviously, AOL is saying that one needs an IMAP email client. That isn't the point. AOL had a working system vis a vis Emailer, and AOL changed it so it no longer functions. Thus, it shouldn't be rocket science for AOL to reinstitute whatever is necessary, whether under IMAP or with something else (THAT is what I don't know about), such that Emailer could continue to do what it has always done. To do this doesn't involve Claris, Apple, or anyone else except AOL, assuming AOL wants to provide good service (of course, that latter might be a debatable point!) AOL "broke" it; AOL could "fix" it! ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
