I don't think it's fixed -- I had a message from AOL yesterday that had 
no Subject:, but rather a blank line, the contents of the subject, and 
then the rest of the headers, in the body.  It was the first "official" 
post on a new list, too.  All the test posts worked fine, and newer 
messages seem okay.
