> WARNING - for those running auto-deny IP addresses who send too many bad
> recipients; several AOL MXs are bouncing
> huge numbers of forged e-mail addresses.   This generates many bounces for
> each MX which look like bad recipient-style E-mail harvesting.  If you cut
> them off, you'll also cut off legitimate E-mail from AOL.

>    I haven't determined yet if those AOL MXs were open relays, or if they
> were accepting spam from an internal source.
