Okay, here's the story. Internet mail that arrived to your America Online
mailbox during 5 January to 8 January was damaged coming from the Internet.
You will still be bale to read it, reply to it, or save it as a text file.
The pointers that identity it to the AOL software as mail that can be
downloded as a Flash Session were corrupted. The official advice is to delete
that mail before doing your flashsession. If you want to save that mail (and
coming from SCOUTS-L, who doesn't...;) ), forward it back to yourself, either
to the screen name that received it or another one on your account. That will
allow you to downlaod it in a flash session.
Hope this helps, YIS,
