UUUGH!

I have email validation set up and anyone with AOL isn't getting the validation email!

Why is this?

Would I be better setting up the GForum mail server with SMTP or Sendmail?

Finally, a few aol users have reported not being able to post even though they are validated (by me) and logged in? does this make any sense?

I LOVE this product, but this AOL business is bordering on unacceptable.

Sorry for the rant.

Is it Gossamer Forum saying they can't post or something else? Take a look at this:

With them not getting emails, AOL might be blocking your mail server's IP. For example, when I try 'send' mail to an AOL mailserver from my broadband, I get:
If your mailserver is being run from a broadband IP, then you may be having the same problem. Also, if AOL users have reported that spam has originated from your mailserver, AOL may have blocked your IP. We have had that happen with one of our hosting clients, and you have to contact AOL mail admins about getting yourself removed from their block list.

Adrian,

Thanks for the hints. I'm on the hunt now.
