AOL 8.0

[Ronald W. Satz]

Ken, John, et. al.:

1.  When I had AOL 9.0 installed, I was able to send e-mail to this list 
in plain text.  I've attempted numerous times to get AOL 9.0 working 
again, but cannot.  I even joined the AOL Beta Testers group, but the 
last three AOL Beta CD's have frozen my computer.  And it's not because 
my computer is not powerful enough for 9; it's a SuperMicro, 3.06 GHz, 2 
GB RAM, Ultra320 SCSI system.  Maybe it's too powerful!

2.  I tried right-clicking inside the body of an AOL 8.0 e-mail--there 
is no option for plain text.

3.  I downloaded AOL Communicator, as recommended.  This very e-mail 
should be plain-text!  It would appear that this add-on software has 
come from the Netscape division of AOL.  Anyhow, it's kind of nice.  One 
can search within all e-mails (like in 9).
