First you open an email window and right click inside the message blank. A pop-up menu will appear and, at the very bottom of the pop-up, there is a "Compose as Plain Text" choice. Click on that option and you will see that the font attributes bar choices dims out. This takes away the ability to put any HTML codes, such as BOLD, ITALICS, font colors, back ground, and embedded graphics and such in the message. To test this you can again right click in the message blank and the pop-up will have "Compose as HTML" as the bottom choice. Click on that choice and you will see that the font attributes bar lights back up again. OK. Right click again and select "Compose as Plain Text" and you can type and send your message to the list. The next time you open an email window it will automatically default to the "Compose as HTML" mode, so you only have to change it if you want to draft and send a plaintext message. This procedure is only guaranteed to work in the latest release of AOL 9.0 Optimized. I do NOT know if this works in newer versions (later builds) of AOL 8.0 IMI 8.0, but it may, as AOL sometimes sends new or updating code to subscribers who use older versions of AOL.
