I have one religious based customer that puts out a daily newsletter and it too is a confirmation opt-in process. It doens't make any difference, as new AOL customers will sign up for her list on a Monday and report Tuesday morning's email as Spam - I personally believe the AOL REPORT AS SPAM system is broken as I have spoken to one of these newsletter recipients personally and this individual claims they have never reported this particualr newsletter as Spam, yet I got the notice that she did.

I get the AOL postmaster reports and, unfortunately, they're not helpful in my case. Some AOL users are marking a diabetes support newsletter I send as spam, even though (a) it's not commercial and (b) they had to double opt in to get it (send request, get email, confirm they want it). It's the old problem of people signing up for a mailing list and forgetting they did. Running mailing lists is death from a 1,000 complaints.

First off, please forgive my previous blank response. Accidental send. You may also want to visit the feedback link and set up a feedback for your server's IP. That will give you an idea of what is getting reported by AOL customers as Spam from your server. The AOL account will not be shown, of course.
