I might not be understanding Yahoo's statement correctly but that answer doesn't seem to apply to connections being terminated for deferred reasons, hence the " When this limit is reached, no further messages will be accepted for delivery as our server automatically terminates the connection (without giving an error code)." "Reestablish connections if you do not get an error code" statements.
