Hi Jim,

AOL has been overdoing their spam filtering for months now.  At least 
your e-mails came bouncing back so you knew that they didn't get 
through.  I'm an eBay record seller and many of my e-mails to my auction 
winners who use AOL do not get through, but neither do they come 
bouncing back.  The result is ill will between buyer and seller, both of 
whom think the other is ignoring them.  Many eBay sellers have been 
having this problem with AOL; also with Hotmail addresses.  Presumably 
AOL is flagging certain ISP's as potential sources of spam and are 
blocking all or most e-mails from those sources.  What is maddening is 
that some e-mails get through and some don't.  There is no consistency 
to the policy.

Best regards,
