Also, as one of my customers found out, don't put an exclamation point at the end either or you get the same message. He was using something like 'Thanks for visiting example.com!' in his email footers. This was plain text mind you, not an href. It would be nice if AOL would document this in their list of errors on their postmaster site. -- Chris Scott Host Orlando, Inc http://www.hostorlando.com/
