Changing your PTR would be a smart idea. AOL considers the PTR in the spam filters. Your current PTR would throw up a red flag.

Subject: [IMail Forum] BT and AOL Problem - stalemate

I have finally ground to a halt with this problem...AOL cannot help...BT cannot/will not help, they say we have to use their SMTP servers and then it will be OK..!!

We have a fixed IP address and it is not "Residential" and we are definitely not Open Relay (as AOL confirmed).

My only other thought, but I am unsure as to the consequences, is to change my PTR record to be 217.34.127.9 = imail.iesdigital.com instead of it's current "host217-34-127-9.in-addr.btopenworld.com" -  would this work or does it have to be BT as they are our ISP.

Apologies for any incorrect syntax, but I guess you know what I am asking.  Also would this change cure my AOL refusals?
