The kind of stupidity that gets the Lemmings who rely on AOL to brag to
their friends about how little spam they get...

Oi.

Subject: [IMail Forum] AOL causing new problem

Apparently, AOL has introduced a new feature for e-mail for their users.

This is called the Report Spam button.

When they get enough reports, they reject any e-mail from that IP address.

Problem:

UserA has an e-mail on localmailservera mail server. They have that e-mail
forwarded to their AOL address. They get spam, and without even bothering to
look at where it came from, hit the report spam button. They are now falsely
reporting the spam is from localmailservera which AOL then ends up blocking.

What kind of stupidity is that?
