AOLs feedback loop seams to take a month or so to take effect.

Subject: AOL tarpitting?



had AOL tarpitting gotten quite a bit more aggressive in the last
few days?

It happened to us and we signed up for their "feedback loop" and
rerouted our mail to them via another route.

The new route was tarpitted within 24 hours and absolutely nothing
was communicated to us about it via the "feedback loop".

Does that thing actually work?

Any contacts, on or off list who could advise?
