The Yahoo has made a change in their gateway, which Verizon uses.
Before I could just log in and Exchange would send each message with
the my domain on each message. Yahoo is Is now requiring that, if
you do not use their domain as your return address, you must verify
that you own the address that you are attempting to use. They have
set up a procedure to validate the email accounts, but it still did
not accept my mail. The only work around, to get mail out, is to
actually use their domain in on the outgoing messages. Which
requires that I temporarily set the default email address to their
domain when I want to send a email out.

Youch, this is not going to be a workable solution if you have your own
domain name.

So I forgot to change it back to SBS policy value, and email is
picked up from my external mailbox, not the Verizon one, but was
never delivered to my internal Exchange mailbox. As soon as I change
the default e-mail address back to the SBS policy value, all the spam
is properly delivered. So, one question is, where is that mail
dropped and can I recover it?

A second question is, what is a more reasonable service I might use to
transmit, and receive, my e-mail, that won't cost much more that
Verizon and can work with Exchange?

If you can't send out directly, check out MailHop Outbound from
www.dyndns.com - it's about $10/yr for 150 outbound messages per day. You
can buy two blocks of 150 if you want to send more per day. It's a good
service. I have no idea how much Verizon/Yahoo/whomever currently charges
you, but it doesn't sound like a 'business class' account so you can still
figure it's cheaper than that would be.


This really brings back the nightmare I had with Earthlink, when they
attempted to upgrade their system without first going out and
upgrading all their old and outdated modems. That was the summer I
was out for a month, couldn't keep up my posting, didn't like what MS
was doing with Outlook and VBA and showed it, and was dropped from
the MVP program.

So, does that adequately explain why the CEICW isn't really involved
in the problem, and Verizon/Yahoo is?
