SendGrid being blocked by Yahoo Mail server


As of a few weeks ago, I noticed that I am unable to receive emails from my domain account. My application is deployed to the azure server and it uses SendGrid to send emails and this happens from my application. For example my application is 'myapplication.com' and the azure sendgrid configuration for the mail server is set up to use '[email protected]' but when I send and email to my yahoo account, let say to reset my password. The email never makes it, not even going to spam. I remember reading something like this a few weeks back http://sendgrid.com/blog/update-yahoos-dmarc-policy "Yahoo New Policy" but I don't see how that would effect me since my from account is not a yahoo account. If there is no fix for this, what is an alternative email setup


Solution

  • Before considering an alternate email setup, contact SendGrid through support.sendgrid.com, it's possible that Yahoo is wrongly blocking your email. If this is the case SendGrid will advocate for you and work to get it unblocked.
