Can't get AIM app to work - user blocked

[meagain]

My husband and I are trying to test the AIM app. When we try to send to each other we get:

"Unable to send IM - Your Message was blocked from being sent to ****"

We both get this error message. Yet I can send to a friend just fine.
Anyone know what the problem might be or how to fix this? Thanks!

Any help with this problem? It just popped up today for me and i'm trying to figure out how to get it to work again.

i've powered down and then back up, but nothing has worked.

thanks.

My AIM has been working great and frankly I was testing it today and getting the blocked message again. That means the receiver is not online. When they are not online on say, a mac, I get "not online" depending on (their?) settings, I can still type messages that they'll read later when they get online. But I get "blocked user" on the iphone if they are not online.
