Personal story about AOL
My non-techie boss uses AOL for all EMail. Everyday I turn in a time
card to him. ~1.5 months ago the time card stopped showing up. This
is a personal email sent through a simple forwarding service on
a box which is NOT blacklisted in any form. AOL rules just thought it
looked like spam and started deleting it until I changed the format of
my email.
