Some kind of AOL authentication is going on?

Well now I curious Carl

Some kind of filtering is going on. Within 5 hours of creating a SPF
resource record in our DNS for our domain GLDATA.COM, the number of
reject messages from AOL dropped dramatically.

Unfortunetly for us (and others)  our domains are being fraudently used
by spammers, resulting in about 10% of our email now being rejects from
other servers.

We do not use it to filter inbound at this time. We hope to do this
shortly.

After create the DNS SPF resource record for our domain, we reduce the 
reject notices from AOL from about 150/day to about 5/day.

However we still get domain spoofed related rejects from AOL (the 
transaction header is below).

Guess AOL is not implementing SPF on all its servers?
