Hi,

I run a forum on Ibiblio and am seeing a strange phenomenon lately. Messages
are dropping off for certain users like AT&T, sbcglobal, etc. Gmail users are seeing these messages as Spam, but others are seeing nothing. Strangely, these messages do appear in the Archives of Ibiblio. Many of these messages are sent from AOL subscribers and Yahoo. I am being told that AOL and Yahoo are appending certain things to their headers which makes them incompatible with standard practices. Whatever, Ibiblio seems to accept these messages and attempts to send them out.
They either wind up in Spam folders or never appear, at all.

Unfortunately, if these messages are being filtered by some server, some of our users
are not aware that they were even sent and no error messages are generated.

I would like to know what is happening to these missing messages that do not show up in Inbox's, Spam Folders, or Trash Folders. Do I tell our AOL users to stop sending
messages to our forum?
