That AOL Error is letting you know that AOL is blocking mail from your
internet service provider because they are getting too much spam from
their servers. You should let your ISP (Verizon, it looks like) know
that you are getting the message and ask them to address the problem
with AOL.

I've had this problem occasionally because my email goes through Go
Daddy's servers and they sell space to a lot of spammers.

Here's some info:
