Hi Raymond...
I am pulling my hair out, and hope you can help.
I run ConsumerWorld.org, a public service consumer education site. We have a 100% opt-in newsletter that is sent once a week (early Monday am) to about 35,000 subscribers, many of whom are Yahoo! customers.
For about the last two months, Yahoo! has been delaying or in most cases not delivering the newsletter at all to those with Yahoo email addresses.
I have gone through the process using your postmaster forms to try to resolve the issue to no avail. I even resorted to asking readers to write to Yahoo! to urge them to stop blocking the newsletter.
I use Domain Keys and SPF records for my email newsletter. I send 20 identical emails (using BCC's) per thread, with four threads running simultaneously. I do not recycle the connection in any thread. (This meets Yahoo's, 20 limit should 20 Yahoo users be in any of these groups of 20.) I even tried sending each email individually to no avail, using 10 threads. I remove legitimate bouncing emails after two soft bounces or one hard bounce. I am on a shared email server, and the newsletter is sent from 208.43.114.50 .
Despite this, I get delay messages from Yahoo (it has been delayed 144 hours type stuff), for example. But for most newsletters addressed to Yahoo users, no error message is received. Today I got a number of TS01 error messages, as I did maybe two months ago.
I believe I have done everything reasonable to be within Yahoo's mail guidelines, but something is blocking delivery of the newsletter that never existed before. (I have been sending the newsletter for about 10 years!)
I am hoping that having reached a real human being in the postmaster office at Yahoo!, you may be able to help me resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Edgar Dworsky
