Groups, which used to have (or seem to have) a one-strike-you're-out rule: one failure tripped the recipient out of receiving email from Yahoo! Groups and into being able to read group messages only via the web. But that seems to have changed: Yahoo! added a bunch of outgoing servers we didn't know about, and the resulting greylisting 4xx messages didn't seem to hurt the recipients. (We had the known Yahoo! Groups servers white listed...we've added the new ones we've seen.) And a connection failure might not have triggered the same rule anyhow. --John -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
