My problem with Yahoo's smtp server is separate from the other problem.
But it does keep me from being able to test how the other problem might
affect me.
The combination of the two problems, along with Yahoo's lackadaisical
contempt for PAYING customers who need support is a crock of shit.
I absolutely will be canceling Yahoo as soon as I decide on a new email
service.

John,
Just in case:
If you are concerned about e-mails that you are sending to PDML from
your Yahoo account via Yahoo smtp servers, than the recent change
described in the links posted by Matthew should not affect you.
It affects only Yahoo users who are sending e-mail via smtp servers
OTHER than those from Yahoo.
(The second link's post explains how to fix the problem:
"Endusers can do a couple things. For one-to-one mail make sure you're
using the Yahoo outgoing mail servers and that should fix the problem
without you having to really make any change." )

As I understand it: Yahoo is telling recipient email services not to
accept mail from Yahoo email addresses that doesn't come from Yahoo's
servers. Since email on this mailing list, or other mailing lists,
comes from non-Yahoo servers, Gmail and other recipients reject the
mail, or mark it as spam, in accordance with Yahoo's request.
That tears it.
The only reason I have a paid Yahoo account is so I can use Yahoo's smtp
server for PDML. Now Yahoo is telling the other providers not to accept
PDML mailings posted from my Yahoo account?
