Here's an update.  We took 2 spams that were obviously spam, and had headers typical 
of spam.  We added the "Precedence: bulk" to both of them, and neither of them had an 
AOL address in the To: or Cc: headers.  One was an adult message, which had a number 
of "bad" words, and even had "porn" in the subject.  Yet, both of them were delivered! 
 Even an E-mail from an IMail mailing list was delivered.

I'm not sure what to make of this yet, except that perhaps the "Precedence: bulk" may 
not be a problem after all.  Or it may only be a problem when AOL mail servers are 
overloaded.
