AOL and Whitelist

I need to send to an email list of which some are AOL. Because of the damned spam filter, it will not do it. I do not 'qualify' (as a private individual) for the whitelist, and I do NOT have a Reverse DNS. Does anyone know how to get these mails out?

Snail mail, and explain why to the person concerned. That way they might complain to AOL that their policy is causing them to loose important urgent mail.

I am looking at asking No 1 son to write a perl script to access the mailing list and send out individual emails to avoid the AOL problem. Do you suggets there is no way my AOL recipients can 'elect' to receive an email from a list from me?

He says he has a suitable script he has already written BUT (call me ungrateful!) I have downloaded and installed a freeware prog called GroupMail which APPEARS to do the job very neatly. I am just awaiting receipt confirmations from the AOL'ers.
