 How many subscribers to the list use AOL or PSI????
 If none, just kill both domains off....
 In addition AOL will go after them if send via their servers and
 those guys do give a phone number...

 A major part of spam uses  a  to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 where the part after the @ can be anything
 another favourite is   cc recipient list not shown: ;
 Is their any easy way your mailserver can dump any mail with that in
 the headers??
 It doesnt get them all as some guys are getting smarter but it could
 at present catch about 80%. Or as these things proudly say what
 produced them kill them on that   in the text..
 ie:  Extractor Pro Bulk E- Mail Software
 I would imagine that Extractor PRO  as string could be safely
 considered to be Bulk email....
