Heya,
Another problem many may or may not be aware of is that if you're a email provider and the clients mail is accepted by your server then forwarded to their xtra address, the yahoo mx accepts the mail and then it's gone. So if any of your clients have email forwarders pointing to xtra, they DONT work :/
Regards Barry
That would most likely be their DomainKeys sender policy getting in your way. I have not had any problem with forwarding to Xtra since reconfiguring my mailer, to enforce setting the envelope sender during a forward to the redirecting email address (which their mailer can authenticate authority for). That was setup to cope with forwarding under SPF. AYJ
We have just spent the last few days trying to solve an email issue, which I am starting to think might be related to the whole yahoo changes as the time scale is the same.
One of our clients has their ADSL through Xtra but all their other services through us. Starting on Monday, they haven't been able to send any email, via smtp.xtra.co.nz. We are presuming, that their outbound addresses have contained their domain for which Xtra is neither the registrar nor the MX of.
Debugging the issue has been particularly difficult as the customer is not very computer literate and English is not their natural language. We are unable to complete the diagnosis of the issue as the client has now taken Xtra's advice ( Xtra continually maintained that we were the problem - kind of difficult to see when the mail was coming nowhere near us ) and have now transferred their domain to Xtra.
We had a similiar situation a while back with two client who were using Paradise in a similiar way. There issue was more related to not being able to have mailboxes on Paradise's servers anymore because Paradise didn't host the domain. The solution was for us to provide the mailboxes instead.
I would be interested if this really is an isolated case, or has Xtra tightened up on their inbound mail policy for their own customers.
