Dear Sir or Madam,
thanks for your mail.
For security reasons GMX accepts mails of aol.com, hotmail.com and
yahoo.com only from mail servers of those domains. So if a sender sends his
mails over another server, GMX doesn't accept them by default.
This filter's purpose is to protect our users from undesirable spam.
Of course every user is allowed to decide whether or not he wants to
receive such mails or not.
He can disable this security mechanism in "options -> anti spam hotlist".
There he'll find a checkbox to enable or disable this feature. That way he
can accept mails send from yahoo over foreign servers.
Thanks for your understanding
We're very sorry for the late reply.
Yours sincerely,
Janine Restis
