But please elaborate. It may have stopped in the past year(?), for all I know. Since 2019, I've had a handful of customers reporting mail to Yahoo users going missing silently, randomly(?), and intermittently. That's on the order of 0.01% of what our outbound MTA sends to Yahoo. It is not reproducible. I give them the relevant logging showing the 250 at EoD and advise them to have their correspondents deal with Yahoo, as only Yahoo can find the problem and it would be an act of malpractice for me to insert myself in an intermediary support role. Presumably the Yahoo users involved have worked out the issues via Yahoo support or just let it drop, as it always is just one message at a time. It is entirely conceivable at this tiny scale that the real root cause of these incidents is something in the Yahoo webmail UI or user-defined filtering or errant clicks: i.e. PEBKAC. It's somewhere between a Yahoo MX and a Yahoo user's perception. That's out-of-scope for me. As I was saying in my original message, it is a problem I can't even start to analyze, much less solve. > You can also share > examples off-list if you want. Not my place. I'm not a Yahoo customer or a full-path deliverability concierge for my end users' personal email. Beyond that, the only 'examples' I could ever have would consist solely of a few log lines with the last showing a Yahoo machine saying '250 ok dirdel' to my outbound MTA. -- Bill Cole [email protected] or [email protected] (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Not Currently Available For Hire _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list [email protected] https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
