Re: Just stop emailing AOL members...

I run a site and if AOL requires me to pay them so users can get their registration details... guess who wont be getting thier registration emails via AOL...

Yup! I run several, plus several 100,000+ subscriber mailing lists (which sends emails containing some web-links)

My response to AO-Lamers, who complain will be "get a REAL ISP" AOL can sit on it! Also, if these "paid spammers" start using AOL to "relay" (which they will by the BCC field) to my domains, AOL will be black-holed at our routers!

I think it's time to re-visit FIDONET!
