Mail to AOL getting 'lost'?
Posted by: eusty on Tuesday, December 09, 2003 - 07:41 PM

The Inquirer have reported that AOL are rejecting all email from Freeserve customers.

Dear Sir / Madam,

Thank you for your email.

We are currently aware that AOL are blocking the Freeserve IP range for outgoing mail, resulting in the non-delivery message you refer to. The issue has been forwarded to Freeserve Internal Technical Support who are currently communicating with AOL regarding the current difficulties.

We hope to have a resolution to this in the near future, however in the meantime, thank you for your continued patience. If you have any further queries then please do not hesitate to get in contact with us again.
Freeserve Customer Services.

The news comes on the back of another ISP, BTOpenworld also alledgedly blocking email originating from Freeserve.

What A Surprise this is. My web and mail Host in Germany frequently comes up on AOHell's spam list, and no mail gets through, Is returned as "Member not accpting mail", or one of 4 or 5 inane reasons their returned mail gives. Oor it gets "Lost in Transit".

AOL are completely idiotic when applying spam filters and blocks to various IP ranges. I think someone in PC Land should teach their Technical support something about mail delivery and blocking . . .
