Is that why some AOL users have what appears to be broken HTML tags in their
posts?
I presume the Major is trying to strip the code out if possible?
   

Don't know -- but I do know that this inability to send Plain Text meant I 
could not post to PDML at all from my AOL account (all were rejected 
automatically) and that is why I now use a texas.net account to interact with 
the PDML. 
The only "help" that AOL tech support could offer me was to suggest I use 
the "AOL Anywhere" option (in other words, go to AOL as a web site while in 
another browser), but (for unknown reasons) the computers in my house won't 
allow that. I believe it's how other AOL users are able to post to PDML; I'm 
pretty sure Doe aka Marnie told me that's what she was
doing.

 

Do you have to use the AOL mail client, or can you just use something else?
