Email aggravations: AOL and (separately) Yahoo Groups

AOL has blocked e-mail from my domain, which is frustrating to both me and my wife. Why? Someone in the same IP range at Verio probably sent something dodgy to AOL… or so AOL says. I hope it’s truly only temporary, no more than the 24 hours cited.

Yahoo Groups has been more consistently annoying. I keep being told that my main e-mail address is bouncing, with a hard bounce. When I go through the process to “unbounce” my account, I always get the error message in the image you see here. Catch 22… even if the error message tells me this is error code -1132. Yahoo is usually quite good about hiding/preventing these cryptic error messages, so it’s especially astonishing that this has continued over more than a month.

Trying again in a few minutes — or even a day or two later — does nothing. This is the second time I’ve run into this brick wall. Last time, I connected with Yahoo Support and was told to connect with my ISP. Thanks so much. I wonder if switching from Verio to TextDrive will alleviate these problems? It’s on my to do list at some point, though I hate the DNS disruption to email, etc.
