Mail to Yahoo is failing
« on: September 22, 2007, 05:15:58 pm »
Ever since the Soldat forums have been moved to the new server, mail has not been able to make it through to Yahoo.  It seems like the previous owner of this IP, 67.106.77.7, (that the server has) had managed to get himself blacklisted by Yahoo, and as such all mail from soldatforums,com, soldat.pl, mm.soldat.pl, and the other half dozen sites hosted for MM is failing to be delivered to Yahoo.

I have filled out a complaint form on Yahoo's site to try and resolve this, but it may take a bit.  I apologize to anyone who uses Yahoo! mail that is being affected by this.

I'll keep you guys updated.

Is there any way to find out who the previous owner was?

I've been wondering why I haven't gotten any notifications in my Yahoo mail inbox.

I know who the previous owner was, but only because I worked at the hosting company this past summer.

Yahoo users should be warned that once this problem is fixed, if you have been sent any e-mail from the forums over the past week or so, you will get it all at once ;)

Yeah, gmail stopped requiring invites a few months ago.

Luckily I actually just switched to Gmail last month/changed my e-mail registration on this forum. It's much better anyways. ;)
