I have had a similar problem. My wife only uses AOL. (My fault - that is what I started her on, now she is used to it.)
When she travels, she cannot send me an email whether to my AOL or this account or any other. Unless she uses AOL webmail. She has no problem sending to anyone else, whether in her address book or not. She can however Reply to me with no problem. When trying to send, she gets a bounce-back from AOL that says that [whatever account she is trying to reach] is not accepting email. Right. stan On Apr 29, 2007, at 9:38 AM, Bob Shell wrote: > > On Apr 29, 2007, at 10:11 AM, Christian wrote: > >> Issues like this make me smile.
