AOL and Yahoo have published policies that they do not allow anyone to use

sending mail with aol.com or yahoo.com email addresses in the From: field 
you'll see errors just like the ones you're seeing.

The misuse of DMARC by those two ISPs means that you cannot run a functional 
discussion mailing list if you have any subscribers at any of those domains.

Not just them, but many ISP's adopt that policy as well now.. If SMTP AUTH is not used, or the relay client is not set..

MAIL FROM: j...@localdomain.com

553 Please check your email settings for SMTP Authentication or contact your ISP for assistance (#5.7.1

And this is rightfully so, if AOL is responsible for the email, no-one else should be acting as the MTA for that domain.

That is what 'reply-to' is for..
