I thought something similar, but we are going on a week and a half now
and it has never expired. I even checked with my Yahoo users and they
are using the web client only, which further leads me to believe this is
not the issue..

Just thought I would mention that I know someone whose mail client was
malfunctioning (trying to login with the wrong password over and over),
and their IP was blocked with the same symptoms that you have. Is there
any chance that you did something to trigger their IPS? If so then the
solution is to just wait for the rule to expire :)

would check
out DNSSTUFF, but I would rather not pay them their annual

fee (With auto renew) for a one time search; are their any free

please search DNSSTUFF for me on one of my IP's?

You can check your IP address on dnsstuff.com -- one of their
services
checks to see if you're listed on any of 200+ Antispam services.
You can also try a manual session, doing a telnet to
a.mx.mail.yahoo.com
(or any of their other mail relays -- "dig yahoo.com mx" will
give you
the list) and seeing what it is they don't like about you (I
assume
conerstonehome.com in the example that follows):
telnet a.mx.mail.yahoo.com 25
(wait for CONNECT msg)
HELO mailserver.cornerstonehom.com
(wait for 2XX response)
MAIL From: <id@cornerstonehome.com>
<mailto:id@cornerstonehome.com>
(wait for response)
RCPT To: <id@yahoo.com> <mailto:id@yahoo.com>
(wait for response)
DATA
send something here
.
QUIT
You may get a 4XX ("soft"/temp) or 5xx (Hard) reject on one of
the
responses that should indicate why they don't like you.

Ok I have a problem in that I am (still) unable to send
anything to
Yahoo, or any domain who's email is hosted by Yahoo. I
don't get a
NDR, it is as if I simply can not connect and I get
nothing in my
logs! I believe it is connection oriented because three
boxes (Two
exchange domains and one sendmail) with three external
IP's have one
common point and that is one border router with one T1
connection.
But I can not get any response out of Yahoo and I can
not give any
details because I have never had to trouble shoot down
to this level
before.
Any suggestions on how to figure out what the *&!@$#! is
going on with
my SMTP connections to Yahoo?
