IF they WILL take you off their list..giggle. That takes work too. And I
can't tell my stepmother to take me off her list. ARGHHHH. She CAN't
learn..so she says.

Has that worked?
I have sent replies to the offenders showing all the addresses inside the
forwards they sent and THAT did NOT work.
If anyone has info on how AOL users can work around the forwards, could they
give us a tutorial so we can forward it on to those AOL users who do
forwards all the time??
I really should just stop sending to those who use AOL and tell them to take
me off their list.
I keep thinking there must be a way to get it fixed.
