Janet, there's no solution, as far as I know.  I've subscribed to AOL
recently (still getting it free) so I could check on things.  

Tried checking out this very issue recently.  AOL members can send
workable links back and forth to each other.  They can send them to
non-AOL folks, but when I tried sending one to myself it DIDN'T work
(from my regular mailer to AOL).  I'm using AOL4 so not sure if 5 might
be different or 6.  But, I've heard so many bad things about 5 I would
never encourage anyone to upgrade to it, and 6 is no new the "word isn't
out on it yet".

Best wishes - I too consider it all very frustrating and wish I had a
solution.
