Subject: Re: Yahoo and gmail PLUG subscription failures
Indeed, yahoo really screwed the pooch when they changed their DMARC
policy near the beginning of April. Yahoo doesn't appear to understand
appropriate use of DMARC. People who use mailing lists should use
something other than yahoo accounts. Personally, I've been recommending
against using yahoo accounts period for a number of years now due to
their security issues with compromised accounts.
