AOL has actually been doing that for a VERY long time. People just never knew it, because they would capture the traffic and redirect it to their own mail server transparently. However, like everything in AOL, it had to do with where you were, what dialup number you used to connect, and what phase the moon was in. I really think AOL's IT people don't talk to each other and each of them just does whatever they want on the portion of the equipment they are responsible for. I've never dealt with a more inconsistent system. (maybe I shouldn't bash them, it has been years since I've bothered with their service for anything other than AIM... but hey, since AIM is wildly different between platforms and versions of the software... I have to assume things are business as usual for everything else in AOL) -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[email protected]>.
