[closed] Yahoo/BT Email Problems

Unfortuantely due to a customer leaving their mail server as an open relay, and set to relay through our mail platform instead of sending directly, and a spammer subsequently using it over the weekend to send several thousand emails to yahoo.com; our servers are currently being blocked by Yahoo!.

We have cleaned up the mess and sent requests to Yahoo! to have the block lifted, but they are extremely slow to respond and so far keep asking us repeatidly for the same details over and over.

Emails to yahoo.com, yahoo.co.uk and BT Internet are currently being queued on our outgoing server and will stay there for several days. Please bare with us.

Update @ 8.42 - 3/3/2010 :: Yahoo! have removed the block and email is now flowing freely once more.
