RE: AOL? (Resolved?)
One of my client just mailed to their association membership. The list contains about 4000 AOL addresses, and this isn't the first time they've done that. While I add some cfmailparams to make the mailpiece more standards-compliant, I don't change the mailer name. Deliveries went thru fine. I cross-posted the advice one of you got from AOL to the Declude list (they're discussing the problem there, and on the Imail list as well) and their listmaster posted this back: >FWIW, that may just be generic advice from AOL, and not >specific to the problem they are having. >For at least a year or two, AOL has used the lack of a >reverse DNS entry to penalize E-mail as part of their >"secret" (undocumented) anti-spam system. The lack of a >reverse DNS entry by itself won't cause an E-mail to >be deleted by AOL, but it is used as part of their anti-spam >formula (along with the publicly documented system at >http://postmaster.info.aol.com, which bounces E-mail rather >than deleting it). --- Matt Robertson, MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com - Retail http://foohbar.org - ColdFusion Tools --- -- Original Message -- from: "Mark W.

RE: AOL? (Resolved?)
Is this a new issue? I remember an AOL issue almost a year ago about cfmail being blocked by AOL due to CF could be used as a Spam engine. I did not verify that actually happened or if it was just a rumor. >From what I remember you could use a mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 1:42 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: AOL?
