I probably wasn't clear in the original post (it's a weird issue)...
The Yahoo user doesn't get the registration email from my forums, so to
diagnose it I;
Used my own personal computer to send the email to his Yahoo address using
the same account - and he gets it.
What this showed was that Yahoo is not blocking the domain nor the email
address itself. So I guess the question
I had is - why doesn't he receive the email from my forums?
The vast majority of other users get the emails. I don't get an NDR report
for the email going to the Yahoo domain and I know the mail is going out. If
Yahoo is not blocking the domain or the individual address then why is the
mail not delivered?
But when I use my home computer to send through the very same mail server,
using the same account and reply to address - he get's the email.
Pretty weird eh?
