I hear that AOL has recently bitten the bullet regarding spam, and when it thinks a subscriber of an ISP may be the source of spam and the ISP, having been warned, doesn't appear to be doing anything about it, it will deny access to that ISP and conversely will not accept mail from it..... But I could be wrong and its simply one of those regular ISP problems we all seem to suffer from time to time ;-) Paul 50.33.50N 02.26.70W http://www.pbenyon.plus.com/Naval.html
