Well, at least I can report success: your message came through as very beautiful and standard plain text.

So if anyone knows how to make this option sticky for AOL users, a lot of listers would be very happy!

Ah, so that's the  problem.  Until fairly recently it was, to all
intents and purposes,   impossible to send AOL e-mails in plain text
- I believe it was actually  possible if you had a degree in computer
programming and a few hours to spend on  every e-mail.  (I once saw a
set of instructions which ran to two pages of  typed A4.)

They have at last upgraded the system and now it's just a  matter of
 selecting the off screen "compose as plain text" button from a drop
down menu, but as far as I know it still isn't possible to make it
the  default.  It's now a question of remembering to do it.

All the  best,

Lawrence
