Here's what happened: AOL converts incoming messages that are larger than
about 25k to attachments. The Parental Control in play here is the block
on receiving file attachments. Your subscriber, or the person who owns
her account, will need to sign on with their master screen name, go to
Keyword: MAIL CONTROLS, select the screen name that they're subscribed to
your list with, and uncheck the box that says "Block file attachments and
pictures in mail."

I suppose I could create a FAQ, though I doubt it would have very
wide-reaching interest.
