You an otherwise bright guy: Why have you stuck with AOL, "the short

I've found Thunderbird to be not-ready-for-prime-time (Mozilla's
Firefox web browser is fantastic) and have used Earthlink (forget
where you're located) and Agent quite happily for quite some time now.

All of the message boards are being converted to web based. I
anticipate another mass exodus from AOL like there was 6 yrs ago or so.
I've considered it in the past, but it seems quite likely that I'll be
moving on as well. Just not sure where to go. One of the few good
things about AOHel is that all your mail is stored on your own
computer, so there's no memory limit for it. Frankly, I don't know
squat about any other dial up service and I need something for when I'm
traveling.
This just sux. And so does Google Groups for that matter.

The only time that your e-mail isn't stored on your computer (as far as I
know) is with a web-based service such as Yahoo! or HotMail. Any regular
dial-up connection will save your mail to your HDD. IF you want national
coverage, look at EarthLink. I used them until I switched over to DSL a
couple years back.
