At least last I heard. Would love to hear that > it's changed. AOL attaches large digests to the message and the only way you can view them is to download the file and use a text editor of some sort -- somewhat confusing to novice computer users. Really anoying if you get more than one from a list and then you have to rename each file. Flash sessions will simply not download the mail, rather that serializing the names during download. If theAOL software finds a previous file with the same name as the file it is trying to download, it doesn't. And it lists a totally vague message in the flash session dialoge box.
