Arnie Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 The Yahoo email address domains have now been banned from signup. Yahoo falsely blocks emails from the server because of a very outdated IP block that covers our hosting company (many moons ago some Russian spamhouse used their services). Because of this emails sent to Yahoo never arrive. Multiple people have tried to sign up then cannot validate their account as the email never arrives. To stop this problem being a constant issue the Yahoo domains have been blocked from use by users. It won't affect current users, but new registrations won't accept Yahoo any more.

tgrillo Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Arnie, I am using a yahoo email address, and I registered before this new ban on yahoo emails. Should I change my email address? I have been getting emails from this site fine (pm notices, subscriptions, etc) Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted July 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 If it works for yoiu then leave it as it is Link to post Share on other sites
McMadkat Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Errr this may just be Yahoo.com ones, as I have always found that the yahoo.co.uk ones are fine. AOL on the other hand...... Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 With the new box and IP change we aren't flagged anymore, so the ban on yahoo will be lifted in the next upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites
