Hi Group: My (not very clear) understanding is that in AOL now there are more advanced/complicted/effective/enhanced controls for spam. This appealed to me. So I upgraded to AOL9.0, and it is only since I have been using 9.0 that I have had the problem with AOL regarding delivery of Rootsweb mails. In my experience "complicated" is often troublesome, and sometimes (often) "simple " is better as well as easier. Is this the experience of others also? I mean, with respect to use of 9.0 version of AOL simultaneous with the onset of the mail problem. Bill
