Re: [General] Problem sending email to Yahoo! acco

my problem is that I'm using the @sbcglobal.net address on the business DSL, and I'm still getting rejected. I've tried mail.sbcglobal.net, smtp.sbcglobal.net, and mail.pacbell.net and it's all the same. basically nothing on my end goes through Yahoo.

Re: [General] Problem sending email to Yahoo! acco

Ok let me clarify this with everyone...

You guys have an sbc/yahoo email address and with smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com, smtp.sbcglobal.net, and mail.pacbell.net your still getting bounced back?

In my case I'm sending using tonydi@someotherdomain.com. When I send anything to a Yahoo.com address, using smtp.sbcglobal.net, mail.sbcglobal.net or mail.pacbell.net, it gets bounced back with the "open relay" message that esung has in his original post.

If I send using my sbcglobal address and use smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com the Yahoo mail goes through just fine.

This just in...if I use my sbcglobal address and use smtp.sbcglobal.net to send to Yahoo, it appears as though nothing happens. The email never arrives at Yahoo and there is no bounce received back. I know the email gets processed by smtp.sbcglobal.net because I cc'd it to one of my other accounts and it arrived in seconds. So it's just the Yahoo destination that's not getting this particular test email. I've tried this test twice with identical results. It could be that something will happen eventually, but it's been almost an hour since I've done this test and nothing so far.

yes, I'm still getting it bounced with my sbcglobal.net and pacbell.net email address. (I don't think either account
has upgrade to SBC/Yahoo! yet). but now the problem seems to be complicated. the bounced takes 20+ minutes to reach back to me now.. (yes, I'm constantly testing it). and it looked like it's the return leg is slow..
