I don't know whether I've seen the "new ARF reports". That depends on how new you're talking about. It has probably been a week or two since I saw a spam complaint report from AOL. If you're talking about a format more recent than that, then I have no clue what I'm talking about. The reports I have seen have the username part of the address replaced with "redacted" everywhere AOL can find it. What I have noticed is that AOL misses the address in the VERP part of the SMTP return path header. So when I get one of these messages, I can tell which subscriber caused it, in spite of AOL's attempts at redaction. My lists also include an X-Unsubscribe header with the subscriber-specific address, e.g. [email protected] I don't remember whether AOL finds that and redacts it. But they definitely miss the Return-Path: <[email protected]> At least they did a couple of weeks ago.
