I discussed this on the list earlier and some individuals made suggestions about how to resolve this situation. There was nothing I could do to open my digest mail using another person's computer without AOL. I can't get any family members to allow me to add AOL mail to their computers. I will definitely buy a laptop before I go out of town next time. Two weeks of not reading any digest mail was a pain. I did go to the roots web site and read the mail there. Especially since I planned to do some research while I was there. I have been back of 4 days now and have not caught up on reading my mail. I guess the other idea would be to unsubscribe any digest lists and re-subscribe to list groups and reverse this when I got back home. Bettye P.S. Forwarding mail using someone's computer who has Comcast results in "gobbly goop."
I tried the suggestion made earlier of clicking the box on the left and then using the drop down menu to read the mail, but I was not able to get that idea to work. I may have been doing something wrong.
