There are none on discuss, so I just turned it off. The issue is that when a single AOL member either intentionally of inadvertently clicks the SPAM button or that AOL itself classifies something as SPA\M, we get a feedback report. Some times, only a single message is blocked, but many times all messages from the server to that member gets blocked and AOL can block the entire server. The problem is that when a major ISP, like AOL, starts blocking the server the mailq starts filling up and slows down the email. This morning I got 24 AOL feedback reports on a single email address of a guy subscribed to one list. I have since removed him, banned him from ever subscribing, and notified the list owner. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf at blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
