I belong to a assocation that e-mails each other to comunicate. For the pass couple of months I'm getting a delivery delay notice back when I e-mail a AOL address. Anyone else have this happen? I have a MSN address and it's getting worse. Do they ever get the e-mail?

You need to tell them to put the address you send from into the AOL Address book.

We solved that with a Yahoo Group for one of my organizations. It works really well for us.

I have noticed a huge delay in mail from MSN to Yahoo addresses, but not the reverse. Haven't experienced that with aol.

Gil, that's for poking at my brain - Hotmail went down and that's a part of MSN now. It's back up, so I hear.

We have repeated problems with AOL. For some reason, AOL keeps recognizing my Company's domain as spam. We've contacted them several times, they've added us to their "allowed" list several times, it works for a while, then the problem begins again.

Our standard rule in the IT Dept - we tell our staff that if they are sending to an AOL account - call to verify receipt. We've stopped trying to correct it - it just takes too much staff time. And it ends up being for nothing. It seems like every time they upgrade their SPAM software, they stomp all over their "allowed" list and the problems begin again.

My husband's company has the same problem with AOL accounts.

Yet another shining example of why IT folks hate hate hate AOL. :)

I have gmail invitations if anyone would like one. A gmail account can save you a world of trouble.

Now I'm getting this a day after I send a message to an AOL address:
