The black mark is against the non-AOL server that delivered the message to an AOL server. That may or may not be the server on which the list is hosted. Even if we assume that the AOL customer who submitted the spam complaint is subscribed to the list by his/her AOL address, it is still possible that the black mark would be against some other server. It depends on whether the list server is configured to deliver messages directly to external domains, or to route those messages through another server. -- Paul Russell, Senior Systems Administrator OIT Messaging Services Team University of Notre Dame [log in to unmask]
