All mail from my server sent to @Yahoo.com addresses is bouncing because of this blacklist:

http://www.spamhaus.org/sbl/query/SBL139167

Seems they've blocked the whole 206.225.0.0/19 range. We're at 206.225.20.165.

This sucks. If you have a Yahoo.com account and are not getting mail from us, you know why.

Got hit by another mass spammer from about 8PM last night until the wee hours of the morning. They managed to post 347 times. I'm now deleting them... one at a time. (Haven't been able to find a mass "delete all posts" for a specific user for this version of phpbb software). Sigh. I hate spammers. Get a real job you losers.

Those spambots are ruining the experience of looking in to see if there are anything new Sad

Apologies for that. They've been getting pretty bad as of late and I'm nuking more than usual. I'm looking into upgrading the CAPTCHA to reCAPTCHA 2 (we're currently on the original version) but it isn't obvious. Until ten I'm deleting a dozen or spam posts every morning as I wake up as they seem to post at night (relative to North American time zones).
