Folks,
While mail-bombing these imbeciles that often appear in AOL.COM, is a tempting thing to do, there is much more effective way: Send a notice about their behaviour to <abuse@aol.com> and/or <abuse@aol.net>. The latter address is high capacity UNIX account, while the former is AOL account in their proprietary mailbox system (and a bit limited in its capacity to take in high volume floods of complaints..)
The AOL people are doing great work at stomping those morons, but having million+ customers tends to have the number of abusers in amongst them to be greater than zero far often than with some small-scale ISPs..
Oh yes, MOST ISPs (and other places, including companies) are now getting a clue that having a specific address for abuse reports is a worthwile thing: <abuse@ANYDOMAIN>
