Hi Jodi,

You're right, it does mostly happen with AOL accts., I know that some of you

in the group use another mailbox just for the group and another for the rest

of your e-mail. Can you or anyone out there suggest one that is more

suitable to take the larger mail?

Thanks

I forgot to mention the fact that some people are having problems with the

digests.

Unfortunately, this is only happening with AOL members, as once a message is

over a certain

size, it automatically compresses it into a text file which must be downloaded,

just in case

everybody didn't understand what people were talking about when they said they

were having

problems opening the digest. I also have an AOL account and receive the digest

version at

another address, so I know what they are talking about. With some of the other

browsers, this

problem doesn't happen. Just wanted to let you all know.

Hi Group:

I just wanted everyone to know that Barbara and I have been in contact and I

have offered to

post her files on my RLS web site. Right now, she is pretty busy, but as soon as

things slow

down for her, in a few days, she is going to start forwarding her files to me,

and as soon as

the information is on the web site, we will notify you. Then, you can go to the

site, pick which

subject you are interested in and read and/or print out the information. I think

this will

definitely cut down on the size of some of the messages and make the information

readily

available to all of us, plus others who are not group members.

Restful Nights,

Jodi, 39, Nashville, TN

Hi Jodi,

I think making a web-site for RLS information is an excellent idea.

Thank you.
