Our abuse department has been receiving e-mails daily with our feedback loop with AOL about e-mails which were 'supposedly' sent about a year ago.

Does this mean that A) the message was sent almost year ago but was not read and marked as spam until today? Or b) the "abuser" is changing the date on the mail server which is messing with their means of reporting it in their feedback loops? (the second one doesn't seem likely, but if it is the case we would like to kick this guy off of our network...)

Most likely this is A. One of the many very frustrating things about the AOL feedback loop.
