Re: Are AOL's MXs mass rejecting anyone else's emails?

I have had my mail rejected by AOL in the past. I found their error messages very descriptive and the AOL mail team very responsive. The problem was on my end and I found and fixed it. Have you gone to the AOL mail website yet? Go to http://postmaster.aol.com/ it pretty much tells you how AOL handles mail and why they will/will not block you.

Where does the 400lb gorilla lie down ? Whereever it likes.

AOL does pretty much anything it wants to. If they start 500'ing your mail, it becomes your problem. Unless you have a large budget and a good legal team.
