I run a few distribution lists from my server hosted on my dynamic ip address and have several domains that resolve to it. About 2 weeks ago a few users started receiving rejections emails that expanded to AOL and the AOL family of ISPs..
For Example:... while talking to mailin-01.mx.aol.com.:
>>>>>> QUIT
*** 550-The IP address you're using to connect to AOL is either open to the *** 550-free relaying of e-mail, is serving as an open proxy, or is a dynamic *** 550-(residential) IP address. AOL cannot accept further e-mail *** 550-transactions from your server until either your server is closed to free *** 550-relaying/proxy, or your ISP removes your IP address from their list of *** 550-dynamic IP addresses. For additional information, please visit *** 550 http://postmaster.info.aol.com.... while talking to mailin-04.mx.aol.com.:
Ended up setting a virutal route for these domains to point to my ISPs SMTP server. The other 99% of domains are still delivered directly.
Me: It totally sucks and is quite biased. I give Amazon's rating system 5 Amazons. Conan: 5 Amazons? That doesn't sound too bad. Me: Yeah, but it's out of 672 possible Amazons! Conan: Your review system makes no sense!

Nice! I remember playing the original sim city for days on my Amiga 500.. ah, those were the days.
It's really too bad that I cannot even build a city before having the Slashdot disaster destroy my chances..
