Wow, I think you're very lucky. I have even had to take the names and email addresses of friends off my list because whenever I send them an email, they never get it anyway--it's ALWAYS bounced back. We've tried to make arrangements so that it works and sometimes it does but mostly it doesn't. That's why I never even try to bid on items sold by eBay AOL users or buy from people who have an AOL address. It's just too much work, and I don't have the time to keep fighting the system. I think you rellay are lucky indeed. All the best, Judi Judith Weaver
