https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59731 --- Comment #33 from Alexandros Kosiaris akosia...@wikimedia.org --- Andre: There is sufficient enough data to know that yahoo (and yahoo alone) enforces greylisting on emails sent to yahoo accounts. What happens is that every few hours their system decides to temporarily fail messages from our systems. After a couple of hours per the de facto standard this is lifted and the messages get delivered en masse. This explains the delays described in this email. As I have already said earlier, there are some (very generic) guidelines yahoo provides for when sending email to their users. We do respect a lot of these guidelines (in fact the very first one is to retry on temporary failure, which we do). As far as how to get some progress on this, at this point the entire mail system is being reworked on, upgraded (and becoming puppetized, which is a huge plus) and it is expected that it will solve some of the problems the old system has and have some better safeguards. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

On the 15th I sent an email to the list using my Hotmail account. I never got a copy of the email like I used to. I posted on the clerk noticeboard about this. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee/Clerksoldid=599904629) I was informed that my email did get through and it could be verified by checking the archives. I then noticed that I did not appear to be getting any emails from the list. I checked my list settings on the archive site and they appeared to be fine. I changed my email address I used for the list to a Gmail account of mine and sent out a test message. The test message got to the list and is viewable in the archives, but I still didn't get a copy of it in my inbox. Prior to switching email addresses, there was a message on the archive site stating I had a bounce score of 2.0 out of a max of 5.0. Because I'm still not getting emails from the list and I've tried two different email services I believe there is a partial problem with the mailing list. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Has there been any progress regarding this?

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59731 --- Comment #26 from Alexandros Kosiaris akosia...@wikimedia.org --- I just had a look at the logs. Data is not yet enough to make sure this is a recurring pattern (and when it started) but it seems like one big mail provider (namely Yahoo) has been replying with 421s effectively stalling mail delivery. This is on purpose per http://postmaster.yahoo.com/421-ts01.html (specifically the 4.16.55.1, related to user complaints) This may or may not be connected to https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52915.

Please next time this shows up have an ops team member like me look into sooner than 10 days. By the way, ~4 hours (which is how much the first of the two messages in this bug having full headers displayed delayed) is not considered as a huge delay.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59731 --- Comment #21 from James Alexander jalexan...@wikimedia.org --- (In reply to comment #20) It is also the standard for many MTAs out there. I'm a bit confused by this to be honest, it's certainly possible that this is the standard for some but it is still very rare and irregular and not what people expect. Even a 10-15 minute delay causes large warnings and apologies for Google for example (and, in my opinion, should) a 4 hour delay would be an enormous news story (and I've seen that happen when the delay was significantly less). Regarding the delay and the inability to debug this now because the logs have rotatedf: This bug was created as soon as the issue was discovered (and I added my headers as soon as I saw the same thing). While I am certainly capable of pinging ops through other means if that is desired those filing this bug seem to have done everything correctly to get something addressed. Is there a process that we can put in place to make sure bugs like this are addressed quickly enough to be able to be debugged. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
