[ale] Weird Mail.

[Gary S. MacKay]

I'm not sure about the other places but AOL will not accept e-mail from any 
source that it can not do a reverse lookup on. I'm guessing that if the 
final version of the e-mail received by AOL does not show MCI, it will get 
rejected. Look at the headers and try to figure out where it's going.
