In the past, I have seen AOL drop mail if the reverse DNS does not reslove
to the domain in question. It seems you are hosted by twinstar and if the
AOL mailserver does a reverse DNS lookup and it resolves to Twinstar it may
beleive it is spam and drop it with no reply.Call your DNS administrator and
see if he can enter a PTR record for you and that may solve the problem.

My user is not getting any reply messages stating that the message wasn't
