Jay Levitt posted a message on Sat, 23 Aug 1997 18:37:33 -0400 entitled
"AOL and attachments," which explained that AOL's new mail gateways are
having some problems with attachments. You can read his full post on the
web at
<http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/scripts/wa.exe?A2=ind9708&L=lstown-l&P=R9832>,
 or GET the 9708 archive.

In the meantime, other AOL listowners have been putting a disclaimer on
their newsletters saying to ignore any attachments to the message.
