AOL indicates they will do this, on occasion I have seen this, but not all the time.

No, but I do apply a small amount of weight to it. If you did an outright block you would end up blocking a lot of legit mail.

Hi Everyone,


I have two questions:

1) If a mail server is configured without a reverse DNS pointer, is that
enough to prevent email from reaching AOL, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc? 2) Do you block email coming from mail servers with no reverse DNS?
Thanks,

Dave
