Why would some su bscribers get some of the mail and others get none of it? Also, AOL is basically in complete violation of RFCs by not bouncing the mail to the RFC821 MAIL FROM address. They can get away with it, because they are big. I suspect, for private reasons, that AOL's e-mail system was designed by a moron studying to be an idiot. The only way they will fix it is if their subscribers complain. -- "I've got guns.
