Just a heads up to you guys, it looks like AOL is denying e-mails
containing HREF tags that don't follow the RFCs for a valid URL. If you had
a link to "www.google.com " (notice the 2 spaces), AOL will kick back the
email. Pretty stupid if you ask me .. it's like denying an e-mail because
someone spelled something wrong. Anyhow, if you have users complaining that
they can't send to AOL, here is yet another thing that could be wrong.
Following is an example of the reject message:
host mailin-01.mx.aol.com[64.12.138.57] said: 554-:(HVU:NR)
This email is rejected for containing one or more URLs which do not
follow RFC guidelines. For additional inforCODE=DL0 554 TRANSACTION FAILED
