Not only that, but AOL mail will not send attachments to outside
addresses anyway. This is the third copy of this warning I have seen
today, but I did *not* see either the warning or the "Good Times"
message when I checked my mail on AOL.
Looks like the warning message is much more virulent than
the "Good Times" mail (shades of CHRISTMA EXEC).
