Deliverability to yahoo.com mailboxes

Hello everyone!
We experienced some difficulties delivering to Yahoo mailboxes. It appears to be resolved now, but in some instances, emails may still end up in the Spam folder. If you use Yahoo email on this site and have email notifications enabled (see preferences in your profile), please make sure to search for Overgrow emails in Spam folder and then move them into your Inbox. By taking this simple action you will help tremendously to improve our deliverability to Yahoo because their spam filter will learn that emails from OG are not spam. (You know, AI is everywhere nowadays and it requires training :wink: )
Thanks a lot!
Joe

The Yahoo.com mail server let us down again and is refusing our email, despite our best efforts to adhere to the latest mail standards and follow their guidelines.

I had to prohibit the use of yahoo.com as a registration email.

If you are receiving forum notifications via yahoo email, please switch to another email provider as soon as possible. Thank you.

I have designated a brand new mail server for Overgrow. I’d appreciate hearing from yahoo.com users if their notifications work or not…

Thanks…
