If som you'll have problems sending mail to some
AOL users whose screen name is all capital letters.

I ran into that doing "helldesk" for an ISP. Some
customer using Outlook Express couldn't e-mail her
AOL using daughter because OE would insist on "fixing"
the address. *sigh* why AOL would ever allow caps
at all in an e-mail address.... GRRRRR!>>

That's strange.   When I first signed up for AOL, I chose the screen name 
*Saul Bro*(how clever of me, since no one would remember the unusual spelling 
of my last name), and wondered whether it was case-sensitive.  But I 
ordinarily just use(and give out) my email address with lower case letters 
and no space and have never had any trouble. *Saul Bro* does show up on 
buddylists, but I do cringe when someone on my buddylist has all caps 
ostentatiously in his/her screen name because they originally chose this.   I 
also hate it when people put a space before the subject line in an e-mail so 
that the e-mail saved as text will come to the top of a folder in list view.
