Windows 7: Site email issues

We are having difficulty atm getting mail through to the following ISP's

yahoo
rogers (yahoo)
btinternet.com (yahoo)
optonline.net


I'm currently working on getting us re-whitelisted for yahoo (and related), but it does take a few days to get things sorted.

Optonline are complaining that there are blacklisted mailservers in the same IP range as ours and are refusing to let our mail through, I am going to contact them but I would suggest if you have a forum email address that is with optonline then you update it to something like a gmail.

As of two days ago, I stopped getting any emails about new posts on my subscribed threads. Is this a new policy?

I thought that maybe I accidentally marked an email as "junk" instead of deleting it (the buttons were next to each other... not anymore!), but there are no SevenForums messages in the junk folder. I even reset the junk filters back to zero, and turned junk filtering off last night, but still no messages were awaiting me this morning.

Any ideas?

PS I use Thunderbird 2.0.0.23

Make sure that your settings in the Control panel have not changed. As far as I know, there is not change in policy. If the system was not working correctly, I am sure that will be corrected.

I think there was thread started by z3r010, saying that there was some kind of problem with some servers going on black list or something...I forgot about what exactly it was, but he mentioned that there will be problems with yahoo mail for a few days or something like that, recommending using gmail or some alternative mail...try with other mail, and see will that fix your problem, I'm using hotmail, and everything is fine
cheers

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll fiddle around with those things when I get home from work tonight.

Keep us posted. Maybe, we can be of further help.

Your ISP is blocking our emails, I have emailed them but so far we have had no response

I see you tucked my post into your initial alert -- thanks!

I'll see if I can get them to listen to me. I'm in kind of a foul mood as it is... delivering a good, old fashioned ass-chewing would do my soul some good!

Ass-chewing: Blocked! Couldn't get through to a tech on the phone. I had to use that blinky flash-based chat doodad... and how can one chew ass through that? Feh!

According to the optonline tech, seven forums isn't on any kind of spam list, so it shouldn't be blocked. He had me turn off all spam blocking on my account at the server level. We'll see if that makes any difference.

My usual back-up email is on yahoo.com and it looks like that isn't working either. I guess I'll get another account... maybe I'll try hotmail as Grimmjow recommended.

Edit: If its still blocked in the morning, I'll go to the optonline office down the road, in person, and work my way up the food chain until I get satisfaction.

Are you still not getting them? we stopped getting bounce reports over 12 hours ago.
