[ADS-L] mangled messa ges

[RonButters at AOL.COM]

right now I am using aol and a mac. I am in Acapulco in a hotel. Sometimes I 
use my blackberry, and maybe that is why you are not getting the message? I'm 
not sure if the message that I sent Sunday was sent with the blackberry or 
not. I know that RoadRunner rejects e-mail sent by blackberry.

Let me know if you get this, please.
