Historically, this has been one of the causes of certain email services (roadrunner, aol, others) setting up blocks to not allow Neohiopal mail through and it is time consuming and difficult to get those blocks removed. Perhaps the spam button was hit by accident and you were just trying to delete, or perhaps because of the large volume of mail certain people have perceived that Neohiopal was spamming them. But this is never the cast, since all people receiving the Neohiopal mail VOLUNTARILY subscribed.

<br>
An update for you on AOL blocking: Not sure if you noticed last week, but about 60 AOL emails got disabled again due to AOL blocking reception of NEOhioPAL emails. I talked to my server admins and AOL admins about this incident. My server admins are getting email sent out on the "good" server, and AOL's filters are in place to allow them through. However, the front-line blocking got enabled again because AOL users were marking valid email as spam (AOL admin admitted this). Although they can't tell if it was NEOhioPAL users or another list - it's only logged by sending email server.<br>
<br>
I re-enabled all the disabled AOL emails, and things should be functioning normally now. It might be a good to send a reminder to the AOL subscribers, if not the whole list, about the importance of not marking NEOhioPAL emails as spam with their ISP.<br>
