Aol Blocking Email?

[Cheryl]

I am trying to send an email to my Mother about my pending trip and it bounces everytime?

 

Here's what I get on the header:

 

Envelope-to: cheryl@****

Delivery-date: Thu, 29 Sep 2005 00:56:44 -0400

Received: from mailnull by server21.snhdns.com with local (Exim 4.52)

for cheryl@****; Thu, 29 Sep 2005 00:56:44 -0400

X-Failed-Recipients: mymom@aol.com

Auto-Submitted: auto-generated

From: Mail Delivery System <Mailer-Daemon@server21.totalchoicehosting.com>

To: cheryl@****

Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender

Message-Id: <E1EKqTM-0006px-LJ@server21.totalchoicehosting.com>

Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2005 00:56:44 -0400

 

I was sending thru webmail...and here's what the message says:

 

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

 

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its

recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

 

mymom@aol.com

SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection:

host mailin-01.mx.aol.com [205.188.159.57]: 554 (RLY:B1)

http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554rlyb1.html

 

 

When I follow the link aol gave for the error it says:

Error 554 RLY:B1

 

554 RLY:B1

http://postmaster.info.aol.com/errors/554rlyb1.html

EXPLANATION:

 

This error message is a dynamic block on our system. Dynamic blocks are placed on an IP address when AOL member complaints go over our set threshold. These are automated blocks that are removed by the system within 24 hours if the complaints are below the threshold.

 

 

So WHO on my server is sending spam...as I hardly ever use this email address to send...it's more of a personal account than my businesses.

Specific cases of blocks or other service problems should be submitted via the help desk instead of the forums.

 

I took a look in the help desk, however, and the account that caused the problem had already been taken care of. It'll just take a little time for AOL's dynamic block to release the address so it should be available by tomorrow.

THANKS Good to know on both counts.
