ALERT: AOL.COM subscribers Some have contacted me because they HAVE NOT BEEN RECEIVING MAIL from the new list address: [email protected] (which is why I have gone back to this old address at stjohns university to contact you....)
AOL.COM users: THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH YOUR SETTINGS. See my mail to Pat: (quote) That is why I hear from others that newsletters are being blocked. It is because of this and because aol.com users do not know how to unblock newsletters. It is frustrating for many I am sure who were opt-in to receive mail and now can't understand why they are not receiving mail they requested in the first place. I'll send this over pnews-l to aol.com subscribers to alert them to the problem.

Annoying aren't they???? > Thanks, Pat Cline > (unquote) AOL.COM subscribers: Go into your mail settings and TURN OFF PRE-SET SPAM SETTINGS. Tell aol.com you will do your own choosing. This was something new they threw at you. It doesn't even notify those who send you mail that they can't. It is inappropriate, but many newbies wouldn't know that. It isn't something you should tolerate from an ISP. My other suggestion is to use a dialup like access4less.net which will only cost you $4.95 or $5.95 and you can set your own spam controls or take as many add-ons as you like and it is very dependable. Why pay more. I use them as well as other low-cost dialups. Most today are under $12.00. And switch to a better browser. Use foxfire. It is free and SAFER than other browsers. Do regular spy/virus scans. See links at http://pnews.org/PhpWiki/ and http://g0lem.net/PhpWiki/ for links to some of these. I would also like to hear from some of you who have had problems with mail and have not been receiving the list at the new address at g0lem.net. Let me know if this adjustment helps? Let me know what you would like to see more of on the PNEWS-list (PNEWS-L) list, if not more of the same? Happy New Year. And by the way, if you have missed anything in PNEWS-list you can read the archives. Follow this link. You can also change your options by using this link. http://g0lem.net/mailman/listinfo/pnews-list_g0lem.net Hank Roth http://pnews.org/ ----- / o o \ ===OO=====OO================================================== http://pnews.org/ (links) http://pnews.org/PhpWiki/ (West Coast News Wiki) http://g0lem.net/PhpWiki/ (East Coast News Wiki) =============================================================== Sub/Unsub [pnews-l - rhetoric] :: http://pnews.org/signup.shtml =============================================================== ================== FIGHT THE RIGHT! ================== ----- / o o \ ===OO=====OO================================================== http://pnews.org/ (links) http://pnews.org/PhpWiki/ (West Coast News Wiki) http://g0lem.net/PhpWiki/ (East Coast News Wiki) =============================================================== Sub/Unsub [pnews-l - rhetoric] :: http://pnews.org/signup.shtml =============================================================== ================== FIGHT THE RIGHT! ==================
