Attention Yahoo Email Users

[Oscar]

Yahoo is busting my balls with regards to emails being sent to their servers from us. Turns out we have a lot of people using yahoo email service. There's some technical changes that they want me to make, and I've done the changes they've asked but keep blocking our emails. I wont get into details as it would be as if I'm talking to you in a foreign language.

The emails keep getting deferred and sent back to me. So, if you are registered and you get a private message, you will not get the email notification of it. If you are subscribed to a topic, which many of you are, you will not get the notification you subscribed for since it will be blocked and bounced back.

As of right now, all yahoo and ymail accounts have been blocked from registering to the site until this matter can be resolved. If you are registered already and your account is active, then I would prefer that you update your email address to something else. Gmail is a good choice

Microsoft email addresses have been banned for some time. This includes @Microsoft, @Hotmail, @live and so on. Any Microsoft email address is blocked from registering. If you use one, please update it to something else. Gmail so far hasn't given us trouble.

Also, users with active accounts (yes, I mean all 31,900+ of you), I have been banning accounts without warning due to invalid email addresses. You will not be warned, I've made mention of this all year long as well as last year. So your account will be banned without reason, that will cease any emails being sent out to your account and of course that will mean you not being able to login. Update your account, it only takes 10 seconds to go to the following page to update your email address: ucp.php?i=profile&mode=reg_details

Thank you,
Oscar
