I was waiting for somthing like this to happen, being charged for emails, it's jus a matter of time. Think about it, we get charged for sending text messages on our phones. Having said that, we pay for our ISP's so I guess it is out of order.Quote:

Sounds a bit like Royal mail first class stamp mail service!
First class but not guaranteed to arrive the next day,
A item has to be sent special delivery now for first class
It would not surprise me if AOL did do a stunt like this,
but like said, just a hoax
time to send out gmail invites to all my yahoo and aol friends
AOL Offers Olive Branch to Non-Profits :

This is realy nothing more than AOL already offers to it's members
And it's just the same old plot to get AOL mentioned, a cheap way of getting publicity.
If you are a AOL member & use their software just click in Marketing preferences no I do not wish to receive
I remember a couple of years ago the battle between AOL & Microsoft,
It came to the stage where AOL operators could not even talk about the issues with Microsoft & outlook etc ~ AOL at the time was blocking ports so AOL members could only use AOL software for sending mail.
In the last two years AOL have became a good ISP and opened the doors to how it should be.
The issues with mail still go on and I just cant see why AOL are so infatuated in this part of the market.
the spam controlls of AOL became a big mess last year, and legal action was taken.
But now all sorted, not a problem to report.
Well it certainty is a great advert for Thunderbird email client no ? I see little spam in my email myself but in a working environment it can be very time consuming ,shfting thru B.S. to get to the stuff that matters .
