I have a hunch this is easier said than done as concerns the list
management software she is using. This involves more than a simple
subject prefix, since her verification procedures were involved.
Do what you will, but as for myself, I am no puppet to AOL. They don't
pull my strings. I can't see myself changing list administrative
operations because something was amiss with AOL.
My advice is to write AOL and explain the problem and ask them to
correct it on their end. If they refuse, then the decision rests to
either live with it, or ban all AOL subscriptions. I don't like the
latter, but I have known many a listowner who have reluctantly taken
that step.
