Other people in my address book received my messages OK it seemed but then I discovered that anyone on AOL was not getting them either..... My problem turned out to be....as I was fooling with Kmail I misspelled "worldnet" in the from line as "wroldnet" but the reply to address was spelled correctly. most ISP's do not check to see if a sender uses a valid address....but evidently AOL and "newbie " does? as they rejected my messages.....I suppose that is a anti spam thing? double check those spellings, I overlooked that one a dozen times...also look for a random period that you finger may have put in by itself? like the "tester" once said (paraphrased)....those tiny viruses get their sharp little claws into my keyboard.... -- Olly P.........
