Title: Big YAHOO issue
Post by: pehayes on April 30, 2018, 11:37:51 AM: I'm a moderator for several Yahoo groups related to Guzzi. Smallblock, LoopFrame, Convert. Suddenly I can't post or reply to anything. I get several days of temporary mailer daemons when I try. Google research shows lots of people including moderators and OWNERS with the same issue.

The forums are not dead. Many people are still posting. But I suspect many valid replies are going dead. I have written some good advice and it all goes dead with daemons.

First, does anyone know what is up?

Second, anyone here who still seems to have posting capability please post to those groups to let them know that an issue is in the works.

No idea where to go to resolve this.

Post by: pehayes on May 01, 2018, 11:38:10 AM: Something seems to have resolved. Several of my mailer daemon 'pending' posts have suddenly popped up on several forums. And, I can once again post and reply directly from my mail tool without having to log to the group. Yahoo coughed up a hairball. Hope it resolves for other as well.
