Does anyone know what the status is on AOL as far as 
supporting file attachments on the Internet? I have an 
account wiith an Internet provider, my friend has an AOL 
account. We'd like to exchange file attachments to our 
messages, but it's only working from him to me. If he sends 
me a message with an attached file, I'm able to view and 
save the file. But if I send him a file attachment, he tells me 
that the file is encoded as part of the message, but he's 
unable to view it or save it as a separate file. Has anyone on 
AOL successfully received an attached file from an Internet 
account?

Thanks,
Lance Whitney
