I don't think this is something that Yahoo is doing on purpose. I think they're having some sort of technical problem that they won't admit to having. I've had problems with Yahoo and Freelists in the past but this has been the most serious one.

I have had problems receiving messages from any Freelist lists - tn-moths, tn-butterflies, tn-birds, ncsc-moths...... Just a sporatic message here and there. I contacted help on tn-butterflies, and was told that Yahoo wouldn't accept any messages fron Freelists anymore! Yahoo help was no help at all. I suggest that all of us with problems contact Yahoo, repeatedly. It may not help, but this is unacceptable. Freelists is not Spam. This is the response that I received from tn-butterflies help: Yahoo has decided to no longer accept mail from FreeLists. Users can apparently work around this by "filtering" it: http://help.yahoo.com/help/mail/manage/manage-06.html But I doubt that this will help since we aren't able to get mail to them at all anyway. I'm continuing to work with them, but in the meantime, I suggest you raise whatever hellstorm you can with your users to bombard Yahoo support with complaints. I've tried the filter thing - didn't work.

I keep getting error messages and undeliverable messages from an address that has a Yahoo extension. I have tried and tried to figure out how to resolve this so that person can receive the e-mails, but I cannot get anything to work. What's up with Yahoo that they don't want us learning about nature?
