AOL blocking all "apache" like return-paths

Just an FYI: AOL mail servers are now rejecting all emails with a return path of anything like nobody@, httpd@, apache@, sender@, www@, root@, etc... This is their new system to cut down on spam. Of course if you have any web based scripts that send email (ecommerce receipts, forms, etc...) then they will be rejected.

Seems like a dumb move to me, but AOL thinks it is best for their members. Check your mail logs if you send a lot of email to AOL from web based scripts.
