I notice you are using a netscape.net email address. I have one of those. At the time AOL moved Netscape.net to @aim.com it ceased offering new @netscape.net email addresses but kept the old netscape.net addresses working as aliases, plus it assigned @aim.com aliases to every @netscape.net user. The end result -try it by emailing yourself yourself- is that in your case [email protected] [email protected] and even [email protected] -if not taken previously by some aol user- all end up in the same mailbox. The problem arises when you compose replies, and whether you do so from the web interface or an IMAP/SMTP client. It depends of what address you use to log-in. You should use [email protected] in the screen name log-in page. The trick, if you want your replies to contain @netscape.net as origin address is to configure your smtp server as smtp.aim.com with [[email protected]] as log-in user name (not just "username"). Otherwise the reply might come out as from @aim.com Perhaps that is causing trouble for you ?
