By, "AOL Web mail rendering problem," we mean "renders as an empty message." This is what one user discovered earlier today when sending a message. The cause of the problem? HTML comments. Yes, <!-- HTML comments -->.

We've added an instruction to remove all HTML comments before sending any messages in the HTML template files and the readme file that comes with the template package. If you have any templates in Lyris that are based on the e-mail templates, you may want to review them to make sure all HTML comments have been removed. Aside from the instructions to remove comments and related bits in the readme file, the templates are otherwise unchanged and are now considered to be at version 2.1

You can download the templates via http://webdepot.umn.edu/email/downloads.php.
