They're probably blocking you. Have you gotten many scomp complaints
recently?...perhaps a big backlog of them that you/your abuse people
haven't dealt with? Last time I dealt with AOL blocking us, that was the
cause, and the result was mixed. Sometimes we'd get the connection closed
as above, sometimes a 550 message telling us we were blocked.
