Has anyone else run into messages from Yahoo that are now being sighed with
domain keys?
See: http://antispam.yahoo.com/domainkeys
We have several users who are supposed to be receiving e-mail messages from
yahoo servers with mal-configures e-mail servers that both don't respond
when queried and don't respond to some of the standard lookups such as
domain literals when those procedures are used as rudimentary anti-spam
techniques. Yahoo is claiming there is no need for anything except domain
keys.
Sorry to add to the confusion already caused by a very busy standards month,
but has anyone encountered this and do you have any thoughts as to how this
might play out in the latest round of anti-spam competition?
I've been mostly a lurker on this list for the past 2 months, and have
followed most of the dialogue concerning the competition and changes that
are going on but this is really starting to get confusing, especially when
Yahoo, which is essentially SBC as they merged about a year and a half ago,
is attempting to throw yet another "standard" into the ring.
