No apology necessary. You said he was using AOL. There is NOTHING AOL about
anything, either in his URL, nameservers, email, or the snippet you sent. I
get the feeling we're talking about two different things here. The only AOL
I see is in YOUR email. Look AGAIN. The URL is ADO13.com.
ADO13 does not equal AOL.
Although another old saying comes to mind that I perhaps should follow.
"Never wrestle a pig. You just get muddy and the pig enjoys it."
