OK, I get it.

This is the applicable part of the header the AOL mail. I did
just look up
imo-r03.mx.aol.com and it resolves, so this may have been a
temporary problem.
Received: from imo-r03.mx.aol.com [152.163.225.99] by sbsnet.com

The other one had this header...
Received: from Maryann [167.206.85.53] by sbsnet.com

From: "USERNAME" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
So I surmise here that because it is telling me the hostname was
"Maryann" the it could not
be resolved. So the question here is why... Is the mail client
setup wrong? Where is the
"Maryann" coming from?

were not blocking, just adding a header.
