Jason, It happened to us recently here as well. AOL has published some of the best practices for sending e-mail to their customers. http://postmaster.info.aol.com/whitelist.html. Once we could demonstrate that we were following these guidelines and that we were communicating with opt-in customers, they unblocked us immediately. They have something called a "whitelist", where you establish yourself as a responsible marketer. What are the perks? I am not totally sure of that, but I can tell you that following their guidelines on every e-mail piece will go a long way to helping your clients stay off blacklists, and get removed easier when they do get placed on them. Another item that will help you stay off AOL's bad side, and this is real simple, try to make sure you are sending to valid AOL addresses. An excessive # of bounces trips alarms with AOL. Something as simple as suppressing poorly formed e-mail addresses may alleviate headaches when sending to AOL. I hope that helps.

Does anyone have any experience getting AOL to unblock a list? Thanks for any help. Jason
