Then tell AOL/Yahoo that you'll accept their for a flat rate of $20 per month. (Simpler bookkeeping) Let AOL and Yahoo email each other. ;) You've got to wonder whether it will come to that.

I wonder how many online retailers are signing up for Goodmail, just so their customers get their order confirmations. On a related note it seems Avon can't seem to get SPF right. I found several mails from them confirming orders and then corresponding shipment notifications in my trap. Only score was a hard fail for SPF. ___ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID. You may ignore it.

Actually, I always wondered why free and open software is not able to implement a transparent way handling _existing_ sender accreditions, such as PGP, hence, pushing the relevance of non-commercially based authentification higher.

Hi, As most of you know, Yahoo and AOL plan to partner with Goodmail to allow people to pay to get around their anti-spam filters. We (Roaring Penguin) obviously won't be paying, so if any Yahoo list members have trouble receiving MIMEDefang traffic, please get a Gmail account.
