This is the paranoid conspiracy theory that AOL is blocking
dearaol.com mail because it's critical of AOL.  

If they are in fact blocking it, which they may or may not (all the
reports so far are from people with major axes to grind) I expect it's
because a whole lot of AOL users are reporting it as spam.
