Yahoo email account users? see below message from the KRnet and CorvAircraft email list ?host? regarding Yahoo accounts. Bottom line is that yahoo subscribers need to find another free email service. I?m no expert on free email services, but I?d think Google?s gmail is as good as any, although I?m sure somebody will disagree. See https://accounts.google.com/SignUp?service=mail . I will likely ?moderate? Yahoo account users this weekend in order to save the rest from being unsubscribed due to bounces. To ?moderate? means you can read email but not post to the list. So here?s your heads-up to get a different kind of email account for KRnet and CorvAircraft list, and if you can?t post and your email comes through Yahoo, that?s why. Yahoo and Hotmail have never been my favorites anyway. If you resubscribe from another account, disregard the request for personal information (it?s automatic) if you?ve already provided it.
Thanks, Mark Langford From: EMWD.com (our email list host provider) Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2014 1:06 PM To: Mark Langford Subject: Yahoo's Blunder Impacts Mailing Lists Worldwide Dear Client: Yahoo initiated a terrible policy change to their mail servers recently that impacts every single mailing list software in use, not just Mailman. If any Yahoo.com user posts to your list, they will cause those list members whose ISP/ESP provider is using DMARC (Hotmail, Gmail, Bellsouth, etc) to bounce the poster's message which can in turn cause the list to remove these members from the list for excessive bounces. The problem is with Yahoo. You can read more about it at: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2141120/yahoo-email-antispoofing-policy-breaks-mailing-lists.html https://wordtothewise.com/2014/04/brief-dmarc-primer/ We recommend the following: 1. Resubscribing those list members that were recently removed. 2. Prevent any Yahoo.com subscriber from posting to your list until they subscribe with another non-Yahoo email address. There is no telling when Yahoo will fix this or if they ever will. Again this issue only affect those lists where Yahoo.com users are allowed to post to the list. Thank you for using EMWD.com and we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. Brian Carpenter EMWD.com
