   Er, this inquiry was in the context of something to do filtering... I 
   guess, as sysadmin, you could trap those pages, store them in local .html 
   files, lynx them, then cut-and-paste them back into the message and then 
   forward that back to your list.  Other than Lynx, is there another 
   browser that'll render "plain text"?  I use IE5 and it sure doesn't -- a 
   cut-and-paste from a rendered web page gets you a mess...

Nodding.  I thought you meant it was hard on AOL's end.  I agree, it's more
complicated when you're dealing with already sent email.
