A footnote on this. Since this was first reported here a while back,
I've had several folk claim this isn't true. I've been told from several
different sources that this will work:
----------------------------
For AOL email using Windows:
1. Make sure your font is set to Arial 10, the AOL default.
2. Create a message using only default Arial 10 type. Any
quoted text pasted in from another message must also be
in Arial 10 type (no bold, other sizes or colors). Note:
if you paste a message that was received in HTML format,
it will probably cause you to send in HTML.
3. Hit Control-A to highlight the entire message.
4. Right click anywhere in the message itself: A 'popup menu'
will appear. Move the cursor to "text" and another menu
will appear. Move the cursor to "normal" and click on it.
5. Send the message.
-------------------------------
Kind of a PITA, but that's _their_ problem, right? :o)
