I have to disagree with you. AOL has made a policy choice, and you have chosen an ISP that won't let you change your rDNS. You should complain to your ISP, and not to AOL.
Again, when you are dealing with a multi-million dollar corporation that you are lucky to have providing Internet access, it isn't always possible to get them to do things they aren't required to the RFCs to do.
Until a few days ago, the contents of the reverse DNS entry were not important. Why should someone have to switch Internet providers (if that is even possible!) all of a sudden, when their Internet provider isn't even doing anything wrong?
The fact of the matter, in my opinion, is that AOL is taking an action that is within their means to reduce the amount of spam that reaches their mail servers. That is their perogative. Arguing that they have no right to do so or that it's unfair holds about as much water as me arguing that your statistical spam filter hinders my ability to e-mail a client information about my penis size enhancing product. I can bitch and moan all I want about this, but nobody's going to remove those keywords from their filters because the amount the spam they do block is worth the tradeoff of killing a few legit messages.
