And those should refuse the message during the smtp protocol and therefore you should be notified that the message could not be delivered. However, there are also some client side DNS blacklists and they're not likely to bounce messages. (On the general idea that spam is most often sent with a fake from.)

They give an adress where you can find solution to remove your IP to their blacklist. But there's another problem with AOL : if you send a message with your ISP SMTP server (example smtp.free.fr), if you have an adress like something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] and if foo.tld and free.fr don't have the same adress, the adressee won't receive your message and you won't be warned about it. -- Ludovic LE MOAL The Bat! 3.0.1.33 on Windows 98 4.10 Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
