AOL has a program which detects volumes of mail coming into AOL from
any single source, assumes it is spam, black-holes it (deletes it so it is
not delivered, bounced or retrieveable) and blacklists the sender's IP
address. They could not care less whether or not it actually IS
spam. This could happen to any mailing list at any time. This has been
going on for years and they have never made any kind of exception for
mailing lists.
To get un-blacklisted, their legal dept. wants one to sign one's life
away. See:
http://www.mailinglists.org/aol/
which contains the actual document from AOL's legal staff. Read it. It is
absurd. Just one example:
15. AOL reserves the right to discontinue delivery of mail from an internet
sender for any reason or no reason whatsoever.
