SENDING STATIONERY E-MAIL TO AOL
USERS
Thank you for these fantastic instructions
Milton!
- Start a new stationery e-mail and type
the message you want to send to an AOL user.
- Send the email to
YOURSELF. [Sending it to yourself first is necessary in order for
the stationery scrolling, etc. to work properly as an attachment.]
- As soon as the email finishes sending,
go to your "Sent" folder and right click that e-mail, then
click "forward as attachment"
- A new blank email will come up with the
stationery e-mail showing as an attachment.
- Enter the address of the AOL user you
want to send it to and then type a brief message/explanation if you
wish.
- Send the e-mail.
- If you already have a stationery email
in one of your folders (Sent, Inbox, etc), just open that folder and
right click the e-mail you want to forward to the AOL user. Click
"forward as attachment".
- A blank email will come up. Enter the AOL
user's address, type any message you want to and SEND.
When the AOL user gets one of your
attached e-mails, you will need to remind them to do the
following:
- Click the "Download now"
button on their AOL screen.
- A message may come up which says:
"Downloading to Outlook Express. Do you want this to be the default
for downloading this type of file?" They should click
"YES".
- The next time you send them attached
stationery email, all they need to do is click the "Download
now" button on the AOL screen and the stationery email should
automatically open with Outlook Express. The scrolling, pictures,
message and music will appear just as it normally does on your computer.
When they are finished viewing your email, they would return to their
normal AOL screen. What's with the fascination with AOL anyway? I
guess it is perceived to be fashionable. We all know that Outlook
Express is better!
