AOL refuse an email on the grounds that it's spam coming from an address that's sent them spam in the past. Congrats AOL. So why send the email saying so to a blatently forged return address?
pol.co.uk is Energis, so we can see this mail was routed through an Energis broadband subscriber, who probably doesn't even realise they are running an open mail relay. 172.3.67.45 is an unassigned address, so that's probably been hijacked.
Forwarding to abuse@energis, for all the good it'll do anyone.
