I'm running a number of mailing-lists.
I have noticed that sometimes a subscriber "ceases to exist" and mail from a
mailing-list to his mailbox will bounce. This is, as you will most probably
agree with me, very annoying to host-owners and list-owners.
 
It may just be me but my first impressions are that AOL-users have a bigger
tendency to just disappear than any other netropolitan. Consequently most
delivery problems occur with @aol.com addresses.
 
1) Has anybody else noticed this, or is it just my imagination?
 
2) I'm thinking of adding some sort of BlackList to my
   subscription-software, thus allowing me to "outlaw" users from aol.com.
   Although I find that this may be a bit over the edge, what is your
   opinion on this?
