I've met Carl Hutzler, AOL's director of antispam ops, at several
antispam conferences, and on several mailing listss like spam-l.
Whenever someone tells him "AOL's blocking our mailserver because of
spam sent through .forwards to our users's AOL mailboxes" his usual
response, which I rather tend to agree with, and our userbase is just a
fifth of AOL's size, is "why do you forward spam instead of 5xx'ing it"?
