I've had success getting files into AOL by first zipping the file and then
sending the zipped file (faster, also). The recipient will also need a zip
program. (You can also send a self-extracting zipped file, but that is bigger
and I don't recall if AOL sometimes plays games with .exe files. It seems to
leave .zip files alone.
On the other hand, has your AOL-user tried to save the attachment and just
change the file extension?
