There's nothing available in cPanel to not allow forwarding accounts made for AOL addresses.

Perhaps this can be avoided by purely informing the users of this?
We could send out a message about this, but I am not sure if this would help that much, I did think about that idea.

Well the moment the email comes to our server it goes to their AOL account. There's nothing really we can do on that end either. We could block -any- mail on our servers from going to AOL, but that would effect manually sent mail to AOL, and that's not an option.
