So AOL Instant Messenger has blocked my screenname for some reason.
I have the login URL for this blog stored on My Netscape, and of course that, like all other AOL/Netscape/CompuServe properties, requires a successful screenname authentication.
On one of their 'support' sites, I learned that 'blocked' also means 'in the process of restoring after a wrongful deletion'. (They purge every few months for inactive screennames, and usually disable legitimate ones in the process.)
Here's hoping they restore my access soon, because I'm missing a lot of my Netscape.net email.
Sigh.
