AOL also blocks email from servers living in IP spaces known to be dialup or in the cable modem or home DSL ranges in many cases, because so much spam comes zombied home computers. Their position is you should be using your ISP's SMTP machines to send e-mail, not your personal machine, so if you're on a consumer DSL line or cable modem line, that could well be the cause of the blockage.
And frankly, these days, I think they have a point. It's one reason I've always run my home off of a SOHO line, not a personal line.
