Impact of latest email authentication standards required of sender emails are causing yahoo email cutomers to not receive valid emails
Dear Yahoo Mail developers,
Unfortunately Yahoo Mail's latest email authentication standards implemented in 2024, that now require sender email servers to autheniticate email being sent to a yahoo email account (per new standards yahoo established and is implementing now) are causing multiple yahoo email cutomers (like myself) to not receive valid emails needed.
As a yahoo email customer, this is quite concerning. It is causing a serious break down in communication loop with individuals I have been in contact with (exchanged email with previously - suddenly broken and preventing others from being able to respond or send emails and informaiton I have requested be sent to yahoo account), Other yahoo account holders I know are having same issue, resulting in blocking important emails external individuals and or organizations are trying to deliver to yahoo email account(s).
Background:
Some of the senders attempting to email yahoo email account holders do receive an error message letting them know the delivery of their email failed - others are not receiving anything to alert them that their email failed to deliver.
In these instances, the yahoo server is dismissing this email and not even putting this email into a spam folder for the yahoo customer to check (and accept as valid manually) if incorrectly being rejected, filtered, or blocked.
Yahoo is also not offering a safe sender list - that yahoo email customers can add individual accounts or domains from organizations they work with to get through - when problem from this new standards is disrupting email intended for yahoo customer.
I recommend looking more closely at this issue.
1) make sure to alert senders everytime that ther intended email delivery failed with error message and include why the email did not deliver.
2) Allow yahoo account holders to add domain and individual email addresses to safe sender list.
3) Place questionable email in spam folder that yahoo customer can review to determine if incorrectly tagged as spam or invalid sender.
4) Work to raise public awareness with business and government email providers about yahoo mail security and authentication requirements that you are requiring so delivery rates of valid email are dramatically improved.
Without this, yahoo will lose customers who can not communicate and receive valid email from the people, organizations, and others they are trying to communicate with or would want to communicate with.
Thank you.
