Glenn,

Do the 10-15 spam-mails per day that make it through the mail controls originate from within AOL, outside of AOL, or both?

The reason I ask is that I am already suspecting that AOL would like nothing less than Federal legislation to allow them to block all outside mailings to its members, selectively and at will, and is already taking steps in that direction, all under the guise of "protecting" its clients. Though, how they would be able to tell whether an e-mail is personal or a commercial come-on, I'm not sure.

We don't need no stinkin' Constitution in cyberspace! :o)

Glenn, I must be slow, took me 5 minutes to change plans. Best part was that the bookmarks and mail was loaded automatically into my new ISP.
