Sorry for the Off Topic thread but I’m at a loss.
Is anyone else having issues sending mail to Yahoo?
They are returning 421 Message temporarily deferred to every message my
servers try to send. My server then retries like it should but yahoo
never accepts the message, even after day of retrying. Google turned
up several people having the same issue but no one with a solution. My
DSN is right, I have SPF records, and sign outgoing messages using
DomainKeys.
I’ve filled out every form on the yahoo support site without any luck at
all. Anyone else seeing this problem or know of a way to get to a real
person at yahoo? There are a few reports online that yahoo has a paid
support phone number that will fix the problem but no one list a phone
number, and as much as I don’t want to pay yahoo just to accept my
messages I’m running out of options and the customer complaints are
getting more frequent every day.
Same here. I run or look after about 25 mail servers, located all
around the world, and they all have the same problem.
Strangely enough, the majority of the spam that gets through our filters
is from Yahoo.
I've pretty much given up on them and I tell clients who inquire or
complain to ask their yahoo counterparts to use another free mail
service like hotmail or gmail.
