PHP mailer
Posted: Mon Jan 28, 2019 8:08 am
I have had a problem for some time now where people using yahoo email addresses and sending to recipients at gmail are rejected owing to the DEMARC policy. My host has managed to get us off the SORB blacklist(apparently happens after several emails rejected by gmail) but this issue needs addressing. I came across this in Stack Exchange:

Do we need to change the PHP mailer script to cope with this or do you have a fix.
You should never send email on behalf of an @yahoo.com email address. Yahoo has made this crystal clear.
You should always send from a domain you have permission to send from.
To send mail on behalf of an @yahoo.com email address you will need to use your own domain in the "from" field, and use the @yahoo address in the 'reply-to' field.
In my experience, attempting to send from an @yahoo.com email address without having your message originate from an @yahoo.com mail server will ensure your message will be blocked.
