They've been accepting email only occasionally for a few days now. We're on FBL, check reputation is good/green. Sometimes we get DYN:T2 (according to AOL that's their code for it's our, AOL's, problem), sometimes just various forms of try later, Service not available, deferred, etc. typically after the DATA is sent so MAIL FROM and RCPT TO are ok or no error. I did get one response from postmaster@aol.com which said it was all fixed yesterday which it was for several hours and today thousands of msgs backed up for them again. I am just asking if anyone knows what's going on even in general terms. That is, should we stop fussing with this (everyone's hosed w/ AOL this week?) or is it just us? -- -Barry Shein The World | bzs@TheWorld.com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: 800-THE-WRLD | Dial-Up: US, PR, Canada Software Tool & Die | Public Access Internet | SINCE 1989 *oo*

It's probably not just you. It's been happening intermittently to many people since December 26. See, for example: http://sitedown.co/aol/aol-smtp-in-appears-to-be-down And lots of recent, not-too-helpful Twitter conversations like: https://twitter.com/TboneRyan/status/416577803752984578 We saw this problem on December 26, 27, and 28, and are now seeing it again for the last 3 hours. -- Robert L Mathews, Tiger Technologies, http://www.tigertech.net/
There was a note on the mailop list Dec 27 that mentioned they were unofficially having a malware/virus issue but not much further. On Thu, Jan 2, 2014 at 10:34 AM, Robert L Mathews <lists@tigertech.com> wrote:

Any chance this is related to the NoVa fiber outage being discussed on Outages? Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R. Ashworth Baylink jra@baylink.com Designer The Things I Think RFC 2100 Ashworth & Associates http://baylink.pitas.com 2000 Land Rover DII St Petersburg FL USA #natog +1 727 647 1274
