The phrase "feedback loop" does not refer to a mail looping problem. It
refers to AOL's mechanism for forwarding AOL user spam reports to email
administrators. For additional information, go to the AOL postmaster web
site <http://postmaster.aol.com/> and choose 'Feedback Loop' on the main
menu.

The AOL Feedback Loop is a tool for postmasters, not list owners. Only the
administrator of a mail or list server can register to receive AOL spam
reports about messages sent from that server.
