Thanks. I thought that the mail was going thru to AOL despite the relay
message but I wasn't sure. Now I know the problem is with AOL and not me.

That shows that AOL accepted the E-mail, and took responsibility for its
delivery. If they didn't send a bounce message, or deliver the E-mail,
they lost it or stole it or something.

What makes you think that one of their servers doesn't like it? Just that
it wasn't delivered, or is there something else?

You can go to http://postmaster.info.aol.com for information on the
blocking that they let the general public know that they do. It is rumored
that they also have secret blocking, as well. Your IP isn't on their open
relay list, so you are safe there.
