Re: Spam E-mail Has Gone Down Considerably
There's no way to look for lost legit mail. It's being blocked at the edge and no longer makes it into the junk folder.

It doesn't get reported in Web Mail like most filtering systems? That's not good. That means there is no way to fix/flag/forward onto the real email in-boxes any false positives which still do occur.

While it's nice to have an empty junk folder, I'm a little worried about how this is going to work out. Time to do some research on the new blocking paradigm they're using.

Please update this topic with your findings as I'm sure there are many interested parties that would like to know what you ultimately uncover.

| OK, here's an update:
Over the last three days the situation has improved a lot. Yahoo found the problem, (some kind of mis-configuration with their newly rolled-out mail filters), and is working to correct it.
As to my personal mail, everything seems to be behaving correctly again. All my newsletters are getting through, etc. Spam directed to my junk folder is down by 95%.
I'll give Yahoo credit for quickly acknowledging the problem and fixing it, rather than denying there was something wrong.
