I just received the following bounce/error message from AOL:

>from: Mail Delivery Subsystem <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2002 10:23:25 EDT

[EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] are both subscribed to this list. AOL gives users the ability to block email from specified addresses (blacklist/blocklist).

Is it correct for AOL to send an error message like this to the list-owner address when the sender is on the recipient's blocklist? I can see this developing into a real problem if you get a bunch of people who decide to killfile someone they don't like and the list manager gets notices from each one, each time a post is blocked.
