Sorry to be That Guy, but I've tried the usual methods of contact,
including the phone # for people who are blocked *by* AOL, without much
success. I've sent logs to the various addresses at
http://postmaster.info.aol.com/ and to the contacts for AS1668 with no
response.

Basically, one of our customers' domains is getting a LOT (probably
about 30k a day) of bounces from AOL (due to a spammer forging
non-existent addresses at their domain; the spammer apparently primarily
targets AOL, and is spamming via open proxies). Does anyone have a
contact # or email over there that might result in some sort of action?
