I've never seen this problem before. There are certainly a lot or URLs in that message. Do you know somebody with an AOL address that you can use as a test subject? Do a binary search, and cut the message in half. Send the message and repeat until you've succeeded in sending the message, in which case you've isolated which part of the message as the offending URL.
If you don't have a friendly AOL account to try, perhaps you could just send the message to their support email address. I took a brief look at the source; maybe it's this URL: <a href="http://www.bradleybirth.com%20" target="_blank">www.bradleybirth.com</a> Note the %20 to indicate an unnecessary space at the end of the the URL. AOL may be seeing this as an attempt to obfuscate the URL.

We use Group Mail and authenticate from our office dedicated IP to our IMAIL server via the clients account virtual domain. However, the e-mail was rejected to any AOL address stating that URLs are improperly formatted. We have verified all formatting of the URL's. Below is what we get back from AOL. Body of message generated response: 554-: (HVU:NR) http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554hvunr.html 554 TRANSACTION FAILED Below is the URL of the actual e-mail/file itself we sent. The only thing I can think of is they do not like the sub-domain we are using news.holisticmoms.org which is what we directed for the plain text folks. The actual e-mail itself can be viewed at http://news.holisticmoms.org/index_email.htm. Also, perhaps they do not like our dedicated office IP number even though we are sending via our IMail server and authenticated via their virtual domain account. Does anyone have any clues about this or the errors of my ways? Thanks. -Don Also, below is the undeliverable return header they provided: Received: from holisticmoms.org [68.209.181.166] by holisticmoms.org with ESMTP (SMTPD32-8.12) id AB3337EB002A; Mon, 21 Mar 2005 08:25:07 -0500 Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "HMN Members" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Organization: Holistic Moms Network From: "Holistic Moms News" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Holistic Moms Network News March 2005 Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2005 08:23:59 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_8310132123562132359893" X-Declude-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [68.209.181.166] X-Declude-Spoolname: Dcb3237eb002a698e.SMD X-Note: CompBiz scanned with Declude JunkMail X-Spam-Tests-Failed: None [-5] Organization: Abuse reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
