Would  that  be a bad thing? Zombie or human, sending spam using AOL's
servers  is  an  AUP  violation. Aggregating the mail at their servers
obliges them to police their user base--whether that means cutting off
live  spammers or forcing/coaching their users through the reclamation
of  hijacked machines (maybe that'll become the most important part of
their  "Computer  Check-Up"  feature).  They made their bed by getting
every newbie on the planet, now they can lie in it. :)
