I have a few messages that have been incorrectly tagged because the
sender
used their yahoo address as the sender, but used a mass mailer (
contactbeacon.com) to send their newsletter for them. Apparently this is
enough for it to hit FORGED_YAHOO_RCVD and L_UNVERIFIED_YAHOO, causing it
to be marked as spam.
Is there something I'm missing, or is there a better way to do this to
avoid the FPs in the future?
The problem probably has something to do with Yahoo! (and AOL) publishing
strict DMARC records. So anything "From:" a @yahoo.com (or @aol.com)
address that isnt' coming from a Yahoo! (or AOL) mail server is required
to be blocked according to DMARC.
The mass mailer needs to change the "From:" address to be something
@contactbeacon.com and use the "Reply-to:" for the email address they want
replies to go to. Certainly anything sent "From:" a @yahoo.com address but
from a contactbeacon.com server will be rejected by mail systems that
implement DMARC checking, such as Yahoo!, AOL, and more.
