John,
Are you using CFMAILPARAM to prop up CFMAIL's formatting? I use Declude
on my mail server and was seeing problems with all CF-generated mail
before putting in the cfmailparam statements. I believe Imail fixes the
missing ID, but I include it anyway for completeness' sake.
<CFMAILPARAM
NAME="Reply-To"
VALUE="#variables.emailaddrgoeshere#">
<CFMAILPARAM
NAME="Message-ID"
VALUE="<#CreateUUID()#@#variables.domainnamehere#>">

Subject: [IMail Forum] Problem with AOL delivery
We are having problems delivering email to our newsletter subscribers
with aol.com addresses. We have Imail 7.06. We have a custom application
(written in ColdFusion) that creates the newsletter as an individual
email to each subscriber. ColdFusion sends these emails to the Imail
server in bursts of 100. Imail sends what it can and queues the rest. We
have the proper DNS records for our host (list.vacationstogo.com).
Some of the aol emails work fine, others have problems and are
re-queued. Eventually some do not get delivered after the retry limit is
reached. Here are some snippets from my log file. Any help would be
appreciated. - John
