Wait a minute! I see no reason to ban an AOL user. I'm using AOL for Mac X v10.3
and obviously it's posting to this list (which does not allow HTML postings.) AOL
can read plain text emails. And it can send in plain text (from Mac version for X) by
going to www.aol.com and sending the mail from there. The fact that AOL chose to
make HTML it's default setting is no reason to ban AOL users. If you don't want
people posting HTML to your email lists, set the lists not to accept it. Don't just
automatically ban AOL users because HTML is it's email default setting.
