http://www.pivotalveracity.com/NewsRes/20060207_aol_dmnews.php Goodmail CertifiedEmail is not yet available. When it becomes available, it will come at a cost but will provide labeling benefits within AOL that are not currently supported by the AOL Standard Whitelist or AOL Enhanced Whitelist. * . First, Goodmail CertifiedEmail will be placed in the inbox providing your spam complaints stay below the threshold that AOL and Goodmail set. This benefit is similar to that provided by the two AOL whitelists. * . Second, your images will display and links will be enabled in all AOL e-mail clients. This benefit is identical to that provided by the Enhanced Whitelist. It is also the same benefit you have if your address is in your customer's address book. However, right now, the only e-mail clients where this benefit is even relevant are AOL 9.0 and AOL.com, as they are the only e-mail clients where the default is set to "OFF." * . Third, your e-mails will be labeled as CertifiedEmail. This benefit is unique to Goodmail CertifiedEmail and is not available via either of AOL's Whitelists. Whether this will engender trust among your customers and help thwart phishers is currently only a subject for debate since Goodmail CertifiedEmail is not live yet and has not been tested. The AOL whitelists and Goodmail CertifiedEmail are options and are not required to reach the AOL inbox.
