Where have they said this? I know they have published an SPF record
and are keen about the SPF proposals. I don't see it mentioned on;
http://postmaster.aol.com/guidelines/standards.html
http://postmaster.aol.com/faq/mailerfaq.html
and it's not even on their list of recommended best practises;
http://postmaster.aol.com/guidelines/bestprac.html
(which include RFC-compliancy, something SPF is not yet), all I
can find is that AOL are insisting on their whitelist participants
publishing SPF records;
http://postmaster.aol.com/info/spf.html
Not that suddenly not being able to mail anyone @aol.com would be an amazing
loss or anything like that, but is this actually happening ?
