from receiving my messages on AOL.

She tells me that AOL has contacted her and tells her to contact me & have me remove the block. I don't remember ever blocking her but had an incident with AOL several months ago when I lost most of my info and had to restore it. Any ideas? Many thanks.

Sounds like somebody is confused.

If it's your sent messages that can't get through to her, then the block would seem to be at HER end. She would be the one that has to remove the block (or at least make the request to AOL to remove the block), not you.

I had a couple of friends who blocked me on AOL years ago. I could reply to their emails but I couldn't send them anything on my own. They said they didn't block me and had no idea what to do about it.

Just a guess, but...

My elderly mother still has a AOL account (despite my best efforts to steer her in other directions). Such odd and inexplicable things happen all the time regarding her email. I attribute it all to an old and obsolete system left over from yesteryear (...and no, I don't mean my mother);) which probably gets little or no internal attention or tech support as it just crumbles in place toward obscurity and permanent dysfunction. :shrug:

I once participated in an old-style "newsgroup" (group e-mail) in which we
kept our own killfiles (ignore list). At one point, I stopped seeing my own posts.

Appartenly, I was so put-off by something I'd written that I blocked myself.

Sorry, My Error

TO CLARIFY.......
She cannot send messages to me. That would make it that I had her email blocked. Any help now?

I trust you have reconciled with yourself by now.
