Follow-up post from Meng to the SPF list regarding AOL: ========== As expected, AOL has backed out the SPF thing for the weekend. This gives us some time to analyze the repercussions. If you gathered statistics over this period, please report them and we'll pass them on to him.

For turning off SPF, AOL is also to be congratulated for being cautious about deployment. You never want to deploy something this big with a Friday coming up. I believe they will turn it back on on Monday. ========== Bill
