I was new to this list when the "catastrophe" occurred and I felt shunned
by the actions against AOLers. However, having dealt w/ AOL for several
years I understood the limitations of the Mail system. IT AIN'T GREAT.
However, as a "unique" auto driver (Midget) and a "unique" computer user
(MAC) I find no other acceptable access to the list. I tried to e-mail
Juno and got an auto respond message (No Mac support) also I checked out
HoTMail and found that I needed Web access to use it. I, and my family,
find AOL useful for other reasons than the list and Internet access.
Therefore an alternative would just cost me more (I'm trying to put it
into the Midget). I am not real happy w/ Mark's decision, but I
understand it. I will forward any comments to the Mac team of AOL if
anyone wants to suggest a way out without causing Mark undo concern. I
have read some of the digests and found that this whole situation has
caused a lot of greif (sp?). I, personaly, would rather read the messages
one at a time (the subjects can help w/ which ones I want to read). But
the digest is better than nothing.
