AOL blocking mail from Rootsweb is a recurring problem. This time it appears to have resulted from technical changes made to the Rootsweb mail servers, probably exacerbated by the MyDoom worm causing a flood of messages with forged Rootsweb addresses. AOL is aware of the problem - which also affects CompuServe users, of whom we have some on our list - and we hope for a speedy resolution.
