Tricia- Whether or not these get stuck in your spam folder or arrive in your inbox--if they are not an OFFICIAL AOL email -- report them as spam. You can tell by the "envelope" they arrive in--if it isn't the official AOL email --then it isn't valid. And as Gerri pointed out --even if you suspect it MIGHT be valid (which it most likely is NOT) don't reply or click on anything in the email -- call AOL directly instead.

I think I'll just leave it and if they suspend my account I will change servers. Very annoyed that I am not getting anywhere near the same service as I got when I first sighned up. :-( Tricia **************Psssst...Have you heard the news?
