Check this out,

I use AOL at home and i wanted to set up outlook on my xp machine to use my work email address, in case i wanted to monitor it from home....

anyway to cut a long story short, i installed an smtp server program (aol refuse to provide an smtp server) and when i tried to send a test email, it failed. The log on the smtp server said this:


"AOL has blocked this bulk mail program, please visit http://blablahblah.com"

so i went to this website, looking for a solution only to find out that, and i quote: "AOL reserve the right to block third party and bulk mailing programs, we have to protect our other members"

Have a day off!!!!!
