Yahoo! Mail has not been nice to our domain lately. Since early November any messages (including all the ones sent from our Mailman system) to people with Yahoo email addresses have bounced--rejected by the Yahoo! Mail servers.
I lodged a complaint with Yahoo... it didn't seem like we had done anything wrong on our end. Not an open relay, etc., etc. They acknowledged there was a problem, and day after day the problem continued. The more of our lists an individual with a Yahoo address was on, the quicker he or she exceeded the bounce limit. As of today 45 people have the "nomail" box checked because of bounces. But it now looks like Yahoo has finally fixed the problem on their end that caused our mail to get rejected. That's good news! But I've already emailed all the people who have stopped getting mail from us via Mailman (I wrote them from a Gmail account since I couldn't get to them from my prin.edu account), and have suggested they get another email address and change it in Mailman. That was yesterday. And now that Yahoo is receiving mail from us again, I'm going to tell all those people "Never mind." Here's my question: how do I uncheck "nomail" for all those people that Mailman didn't think we could communicate with? Do I need to go in to each one and manually do it? Also, should I reset the bounce count for those folks? If so, how is that done? Thank you!
