Here is AOL's reverse DNS check, you will need to know the IP of the server you are on. Find that out first here by entering your domain name in the host name box and clicking "find IP address" http://www.hcidata.info/host2ip.htm

Then enter the IP you get in here: http://postmaster.aol.com/tools/rdns.html to see if your host has reverse DNS set up properly.

If it returns a "failed" you will not be able to send mail to AOL and many other addresses without being on the end users white list.

Update on this. After my domain move to the Jim's server today, I ran the check and it gave me the thumbs up that I have reverse DNS.
When I checked it yesterday while still on the WOW server, I got the dreaded error message.
