Hey Folks, 

Just so we all know, AOL 6.0 does NOT give it's users the option of
sending email in "Plain Text" format.  

This is a problem for both users and managers because people using AOL
6.0 will not be able to post messages to majordomo lists.

Is there a way for list managers who do not own the server which is
running majordomo to be able to avoid the "HTML" problem?  How can I
make this a non-issue for my subscribers?

I've already written AOL but I'm not going to hold my breath for a
solution from them. I've also sent an email to my list members letting
them know they'll have problems if they upgrade.
