Is anyone else noticing new AOL lameness that when you send an e-mail
to an AOL user and if the e-mail has a URL in it but the reverse
lookup of that url doesn't come back to that domain name that AOL's
postmaster rejects it and gives you this URL:
http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554hvuip.html
This has to be new policty for them because it never rejected them
before...
That seems pretty unlikely (as it would break every email mentioning a
virtual hosted website), and the URL you link to says nothing of
the sort (it says "Don't use dotted-quads in URLs unless you want to
look like Atriks, doofus.").
Do you have some data suggesting that this is actually happening?
