In one recent case I saw, emails sent via AOL were rejected (554 The
message was rejected because it contains prohibited virus or spam
content - 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable). The apparent symptom was that
the plain text messages each contained a URI. The real cause was
probably a configuration issue at the target system coupled with that
system being flagged by Spamhaus. This is similar to what the Rev
said. Assuming you sent the message and got an error message back, you
can get some clues from that. Good luck.

I have had this happen before from a sterile email account.
Right now I have a few members of a email list I manage that are being
blocked by Cox.Net no warning no note just blocked.

Dear All,
Mesages to my dad's podunk ISP keep
bouncing saying that the email has a virus.
I am sending text email with no attachments
from gmail. No other email has bounced so
far. Is a real infection possible? AVG is running
as we speak.
(Maybe I'll try mailing from this account).
