When a member using AOL and even Comcast get a PM notification, or an notification email sent from my site the member won't get the email....I get it, here's the email title : Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender

what is it about these emails AOL and Comcast doesnt like? Can I change anything to make them go through?

I went through this years ago, tried working with AOL as its an issue with how they do things, I don't remember the specifics. I wound up having to block any new registrants with aol email addresses. I have a message up when creating an account along with an error message if they try.

In one night AOL blasted around 1100 rejected emails to my server and that was it for new users using aol.

Read the email body. There is always a reason in there.

It's often a code number, error number 530, error number.... whatever. Read the email, google it. Then you'll know why.
