And AOL will throw your mail on the floor if the mail seems to come from an 
AOL user and is going back to AOL, or at least that is what we seem to have 
discovered.  It is fine if the list of reply-tos is for addresses outside 
of AOL.  I wonder if this is an issue where they presume that AOL users 
can't set reply-to, so any mail with a reply-to inside of AOL must be forged?
