Steve:
Thanks for the response.
Unfortunatly, the AOL accounts do actually exist. I think that the problem may be AOL, but I just want to cover all sides.
It is strange that AOL would kick back "all" of their subscribers e-mail from our domain.
I have sent messages from my personal address to these people, and they receive those messages fine.

Just a couple of thoughts....
1) Have you verified that those users (above) do in fact still have mailboxes on "AOL.COM"? It has been my ex- perience that many users leave "AOL.COM" giving abso- lutely no notice to any mailing lists to which they might be subscribed! 2) Have you ever thought that this be an "AOL.COM" problem and not a problem with the "SmartList Mailing List" softlist? That too has been my experience running the "SmartList Mailing List" software for many years now!May you and all subscribers to the mailing list have a very happy and peaceful New Year....
Regards.... Steve
