AOL is rejecti ng my mail and claiming it is coming from a spamming server
What usually happens is someone on our server has their domain email forwarded to their AOL account, they then get a spam and report it to AOL. AOL reads the header with our IP in it and blacklists the ip temporarily. There is nothing we can do about it, but an instant fix is to send the mail out through your ISP's smtp server. This doesn't affect the ability to receive email and is the recommended way to set it up anyway since many ISP's block port 25 or will eventually.

This is happening for me right now. I run a mailman mailing list on my page-zone server and email to AOL just got bounced. This is what it looks like:

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Mail Delivery System <Mailer-Daemon@serve.wwwroot6.net>
To: MyMailingList-bounces@3cag.org
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 20:13:06 -0500
Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

MyAOLrecipient@aol.com
SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection:
host mailin-02.mx.aol.com [64.12.138.89]: 554 (RLY:B1) http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554rlyb1.html

Oh well... I guess there's nothing I can do but wait for the temporary block to expire.
