It would appear that AOL, in all its appauling glory is just not good enough for use by AOL-Time warner staff.
IN A humbling reversal, AOL Time Warner Inc. is retreating from a top-level directive that required the divisions of the old Time Warner to convert to an e-mail system based on AOL software and run by America Online"s giant public server computers in Virginia.
The drive to get all the company"s 82,000 employees to use AOL e-mail was an attempt to give symbolic resonance to the marriage of AOL and Time Warner, the largest corporate merger in U.S. history and perhaps the most-scrutinized litmus test for the marriage of the old and new economies.
