I guess Mark does have some experience with TS01 defers of Yahoo. Can anyone confirm for upto how long does Yahoo accept the mails, after we stop it for 4 hours. I mean is it worth stopping delivery for "4 hours", and gathering those mails? If so, I could on the path Wietse is suggesting, of tailing the maillog, and making suitable changes. Guys, hasn't anyone faced these issues from Yahoo, or Rediff or Hotmail?? If yes, please give your suggestions, share your experience about how you went about those issues.
