There are still many countries which only connection to the

Developed countries and the IETF need to cater for these emerging
nations to avoid the digital divide.

The IETF has addressed these issues quite well I think, because the
standards are there.  The IETF doesn't really have a tradition of
advocating the use of these standards to service providers.  Maybe a
job for ISOC (or the UN :-?.

I will tell ISOC



I think as yahoo being a major e-mail provider it would be good,
that they become more responsible (they are actively fighting SPAM)
and use ESMTP when sending their e-mails. It seems they do use
ESMTP to receive e-mails...

Their inbound mailers do support SIZE and also PIPELINING (see below),
so yes, it would be nice if they honored your SIZE declaration when
sending out messages.  Have you tried to ask them why they don't?


I sent an e-mail to abuse(_at_)yahoo(_dot_)com but I have not yet received a 
reply,
This is why I came to IETF as I suspect a few yahoo people are lurking
on the list, or there must be people her who knows the yahoo people.
