Hi R users,
I suspect this is due to yahoo recently changing its handling of DMARC policies.
Yes. It is due to ISP bounces coming back to the ETHZ server. You do not say
what you did with the rest of the message. Did you click on the re-enable
hyperlink? About 250 people were recently forcibly unsubscribed on the same
day, mostly with yahoo, gmail, or hotmail addresses, because they had failed
to re-enable their subscriptions. (This action by the mailserver filled up the
mailboxes of all the moderators.)
I reenabled the mailadress at least 5 times at different times after the
original reminder so I suspect this may not permanently solve the issue.
Is there anything I can do from my side to change this? Or is the only solution
to change the mail provider?
Seek out methods of putting r-help on your whitemail list. Please do not ask me
to describe this for you further. That is your and your ISP's responsibility to
sort out.
There seems to be no indivdual whitelist for yahoo. I am no expert on
these issues but as far as i understand it has more to do with the list
mails not originating from the senders IP range. You are right that you
(or the people hosting the list) are not responsible for all the
individual receivers ISP setting, but in the yahoo case the information
on these webpages may solve the issue:

I personally, however, can not fill in these forms.
Sorry for the hassle! If this issue prevails I will certainly contact
the yahoo people to change the way they deal with mailing lists or just
change the ISP.
Cheers
Jannis
