As expected, AOL has backed out the SPF thing for the weekend. This
gives us some time to analyze the repercussions. If you gathered
statistics over this period, please report them and we'll pass them on
to him.

For turning on SPF, AOL is to be congratulated for industry
leadership.
For turning off SPF, AOL is also to be congratulated for being cautious
about deployment. You never want to deploy something this big with a
Friday coming up.
I believe they will turn it back on on Monday.
