As best I can tell, Rick configured his email client to forward any message he received from the list back to the list, forming a loop, which is where the thousands of mails came from. I'm guessing he did this because he couldn't figure out how to unsubscribe, which seems to be incredibly pervasive with AOL users (don't ask me why).
I've never been on AOL, but I wonder if their mail client strips the links appended to the bottom of each message?
