Close. Actually it's just the spamcop.net text at most. I sent an e-mail 
to my mom the other day that was bounced. Snipped my .sig which had my 
url and spamcop e-mail address, and it went through fine.

AOL's email admins seem rather incompetent, and not just due to this. 
She was telling me how she has trouble getting email from recipe mailing 
lists she's on, even after adding another screen name.
