And just to prove it, here's part of the message I get when I try to send a
mail directly to your address. I think AOL is just trying to make things
awkward for its competitors!

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:
jwmlt-@aol.com
SMTP error from remote mailer after initial connection:

presently available to AOL indicates this
554-server is generating high volumes of member complaints from AOL's
554-member base. Based on AOL's Unsolicited Bulk E-mail policy at

That's because it went via the Topica server not directly from my ISP!
I've sent e-mails to two AOL addresses from both Plus.net and btinternet
this morning and had them all bounced. Plus.net technical support are trying
to contact AOL to get the block removed.

I'm an AOL subscriber and have obviously received your current email
message. I haven't as yet received any information from AOL to the effect
that they are blocking messages in the way you suggest.
