In the past I have used something similar to throttle emails that are sent.  
With CFMX I it wasn't necessary as it was in previous versions.  Maybe it's
time to bring it back.

My IT guy who has dealt with similar AOL issues has indicated that he never
got a clear answer from AOL on what would trigger email being blocked.  He
even seemed to indicate that it can depend on which server of their cluster
happens to handle your emails.  Sometimes it gets blocked, other times not.

Has anyone seen a good resource that might indicate how many is too many for
AOL and others in a bulk email?

Thanks.
