When you send an e-mail to yahoo's published abuse contact, you get back an e-mail saying to report the issue at http://abuse.yahoo.com/. Now, I really and truly hate people who think that you should do their job for them, and that being a victim of the spam wasn't enough but that you must forfeit significant amounts of your time to use their web interface… but let's leave that aside for now.
Going to this address gets redirected to http://help.yahoo.com/abuse/ which has hundreds of different links, but after spending 30 minutes looking through every single one of them not a single one provides a place to report a spam sent by Yahoo. Nutshell: Yahoo no longer accepts spam reports. I am therefore blocking Yahoo on every mail gateway for which I have control, and listing them in the Pink Providers blacklist effective immediately. -- Jo Rhett +1 (415) 999-1798 Skype: jorhett Net Consonance : net philanthropy to improve open source and internet projects.
