FWIW, during the last week this Syslinux Mailing List received emails
from 3 different email addresses from Yahoo. Such emails did not arrive
to my inbox (nor to any other area of my email account). I don't know
whether there are email providers other than Hotmail (and its family)
behaving in a similar way, but I would guess that we cannot discard
such situation.
In other words, currently there is a chance that some members of this
mailing list might not receive part of the emails (and they probably
would not know it).
I also don't know whether there are email providers other than Yahoo
that have chosen to follow current Yahoo's policy, producing similar
effects.
I wonder (please forgive my ignorance), whether there would be any
change/improvement if the "Reply-To:" and "CC:" fields would be
interchanged (back) from the current behavior (since March 2014 or so,
http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2014-March/021895.html ). Perhaps
Hotmail (and family) would accept these (Yahoo-originated) messages
then?
(To be clear, just in case, the "Reply-To:" behavior in this Syslinux
Mailing List has nothing to do with the change in Yahoo's policy. I
just wonder whether we might see some improvement regarding some of the
effects of the latter if the former would change back.)
TIA,
Ady.
