Grant,

AOL is telling you that the IP of your web server must be the same as your
mail server?? Sorry, but there is absolutely no valid reason for that!! If
that is true, not many domains will be able to send them email!

AOL has had the reverse restriction for quite some time, about 2 years, as I
recall. They would not even accept the email, if this was not correct. KB
article was written about the time this was found.
