Yahoo is the most useless email program ever! Here’s why…

February 3, 2013 by George Kosch Leave a Comment

If you own a Yahoo.com mail account watch out! It’s brutal. Why?

Well, they control your spam folder and using SpamGuard technology place email in there. That’s not such a bad thing because we all hate spam, but…

It can’t be turned off and if you are an ISP like me you get this as a result.

1. We email receipt to customer and welcome instructions.

2. We email using authsmtp which is a well known email provider that we PAY to send email to our customers because they are “registered” with mail loop with Yahoo (this is hard to do)

3. We get this message after sending our official email to OUR customer that PAID for services:

We have received 6 SPAM complaints about emails sent using your AuthSMTP
account (ac39856).

The messages and recipients are detailed below in two formats – firstly
with full details and then as a list of the recipients “one-per-line”
to enable easier removal from your mailing lists.

Please ensure you investigate these and remove them from your future mailings.

Emails removed for obvious reasons. Why is this so bad and soooooo STUPID on the part of Yahoo?

They decide what is spam and don’t tell you. And, the poor customer is out like trout!

LAST NOTE:

In the case above, the customer couldn’t even find the messages in his spam folder!!!

Here is what I told him:

Customer said, “Yahoo must be doing a bad thing because there is none in there. What next? Thanks!”

I said, “You can contact Yahoo support and give them the information I sent you below. Make sure you mark it as urgent.

Thanks

Finally, get a gmail account, yahoo is considered the garbage scowl of the Internet!”

Yahoo, are you listening, your IT people are a bunch of morons!!

Boxbe, what a joke!!!

Here is what the person trying to send YOU email sees when they try to verify they are real:

Boxbe’s server says:

Service Temporarily Unavailable

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/2.0.63 (CentOS) Server at www.boxbe.com Port 443

What a bunch of loosers!!!

The most useless email providers on the Internet

July 4, 2012 by George Kosch Leave a Comment

This list is based on real time information we receive. We use authsmtp.com to send our email so if it’s blocked, it the fault of the ISP.

The real issue here is that the ISPs DON’T INFORM THEIR CUSTOMERS of their outdated and useless spam blocker. They don’t put these in the spam folder but simply block “and don’t tell”.

Here they are:

1. Earthlink (most useless award)

2. bigpond

3. yahoo

4. aol

5. roadrunner

6. comcast

7. coming as we get them!

Gmail Rocks

We recommend using a free Google Email account because they allow you to whitelist domains. Google also has enourmous resources so you never have issues with your email box getting full. Plus, they delete spam from your folder every month and allow YOU to control what goes in there.

You can get a free Google Email account by clicking the following link:

http://www.gmail.com

Many ISP’s use 3rd party services to check whether or not incoming Email is tagged as spam. The companies admit that over 10% of the time they have false-positives meaning they marked an Email as spam even though it was not.

The biggest reason to use Google is because they don’t block email servers from sending email to YOUR gmail account. Hundreds of very large ISPs such as:

Comcast
Yahoo
Hotmail
Live
MSN
Roadrunner
Earthlink
AOL

and more….

BLOCK YOUR INCOMING EMAIL AND DON’T TELL YOU ==> EVER!!!

EVEN if you get email from a source you opted into, YOU may find these companies will place a block on that source WITHOUT YOU BEING TOLD!!! No, it won’t go into your spam folder, it will simply get blocked!!

BEWARE and check our blog often for developments on spam and what’s happening with it!!
