The site exists to simply link to interesting places and discuss them.<BR/><BR/>I never send out email, there's no email functionality available on the server aside from getting your forgotten passwords resent.<BR/><BR/>I'm curious what other sites are deemed offensive by members and blackballed by AOL.<BR/><BR/>(Matt, guy that runs MetaFilter)mathowiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11549183968230922341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478555.post-1119386075350529972005-06-21T16:34:00.000-04:002005-06-21T16:34:00.000-04:00Thanks Brian.

I just recently worked for AOL's postmaster group. The url your referring to (metafilter.com) was blocked. Meaning any email with a link to a metafilter.com URL would be blocked. Sounds like they had many complaints back in 2003 on this URL. I talked to some folks over there and had it removed for you guys. The block should be about around 10am EST 6/21/05.<BR/><BR/>I orginally saw the large thread over at metafilter... but couldn't post a comment due to a $5 registration fee (sorry, wasn't $5 committed to letting you guys know the problem was fixed).<BR/><BR/>They really did have enough complaints in 2003 to justify a firm block. I think it was a fair move on their part. I'll check this site throughout the day if you have any questions.<BR/><BR/>-Brian.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478555.post-1119298919382469832005-06-20T16:21:00.000-04:002005-06-20T16:21:00.000-04:00Nahh - just trying to avoid working for a bit.Christiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04197738307131179770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478555.post-1119292297548858232005-06-20T14:31:00.000-04:002005-06-20T14:31:00.000-04:00You have way too much time on your hands!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
