Gezien het aantal abonnees van AOL in vergelijking met het aantal van Kabelfoon, zou het meer gepast zijn als zij mij deze gegevens over hun activiteiten zouden verstrekken... Met vriendelijke groet, Hans van der Giessen Regeling CAI Westland en Kabelfoon

LS,

In an effort to reduce the spam our 36 million AOL members worldwide receive, I'd like to ask your cooperation in the following matter.

We're in the process of creating a white list, containing all relevant mail server related data of ISP's in the Netherlands.

In order to maintain white list status with AOL, we set out the following requirements:

1) a primary point of contact regarding mail related issues, like technical information, complaints, reports of abuse, etc. 2) an email address to which we can forward a copy of every complaint we receive about your domain, and the expectation that those complaints will be acted on appropriately 2a) complaints are to remain at 1/10% of 1% per million e-mail messages 3) a list of all valid SMTP servers you provide for your customers to utilize to send mail 3a) all servers connecting directly to AOL to deliver mail MUST have valid reverse DNS 4) a list of all IP ranges used for dynamic purposes such as cable modems, DSL, dialup, etc. We will block the dynamic ranges from connecting directly to AOL, while whitelisting the SMTP servers. This serves to greatly reduce the volume of spam coming into our network.

Providing us with this information will enable us to make sure both our members are able to communicate by email without any problems.

I'd like this information no later than Friday, July 18th.

Thanks in advance,

Bram Sniekers Technical Manager AOL Benelux
