Often any mail that I have forwarded and saved on my PC loses the portion of the e-mail that was forwarded, leaving only FROM, TO, etc. Only if I forward a copy to my Outlook Express is my forwarded mail saved. If one wants to save AOL mail reliably, a good method would be to send a blind copy to a Gmail account.

In the past when I opened Mail You've sent I received a message that I had several thousand messages. I had not checked the messages lately and when I just checked them the messages saved dated back to only April of last year. What happened to my other messages? Is AOL now saving messages for only one year? Why would AOL even have control over what is saved on my PC in my PFC? I'm confused! Vonda
