Okay, found it. It is a global setting. What vulnerabilities am I
opening myself up to if I disable this security setting?
Since I am *not* inclined to do this sort of thing for one user, is
there anything he can do on his end to access WebMail through AOL?
Also, should I decide to tell him he is out of luck, what is it I can
tell him AOL is doing (in layman's terms) to explain why AOL will not let
him access his mail?
Thanks for the info.
