my wifes forum also is on aol's blacklist (or the whole (dedicated) server?)
its really sad that they blacklist you for sending email that everyone has agreed to get upon registering, where also is an option to turn off getting newsletters and stuff...
then again, when complaining to tech support via mail or phone, it all falls on deaf ears or you get non-qualified answers from callcenter-agents that maybe know how to turn a computer on and read predefined answers from the screen..
AOL: So, you say some people dont get your emails?
Wife: Yes, almost every mail that i send via my server gets bounced back.
AOL: You know, we changed something in our mail system the last week, you need to change the port in your email-program
unfortunately i wasnt at home when she made that call and i just sighed in relief when she told me about it and decided that calling them just wasnt worth the money and in the end we now blocked *@aol.com from registering to her board...
