Anybody have experience with AOL blocking e-mail from your domain?
It would appear that e-mail from our work domain is being blocked by AOL and
this is really making our HR manager angry. She seems to think that I can
do something about this.
The rest of us who use local ISP's or Earthlink or such have absolutely no
problem sending work home via e-mail. Having spent a year in the trenches
of Earthlink customer service I feel compelled to tell her one of three
things. A) Close your AOL account, B) This is AOL's problem not our
problem, or C) Let me offer you a free month.
Obviously none of these suggestions are going to win me any points.
But because I can't let an interesting problem sit for long...any
suggestions?
