thisistrue.com — Yahoo! extends its idiot streak by blocking some 20,000+ subscribers of one of the oldest, and best run email newsletters on the net. Why? Because instead of hitting the unsubscribe button like any self-respecting web user would do, they hit the 'this is spam' button. This affects publishers and subscribers, so don't think it's not about you.

I've had similar problems in the past with yahoo and aol (aol has their "report spam" button right next to their "delete" button making it very easy to accidentally report an email as spam). It's a shame we can get a universal and affordable solution for email integrity

Amazing. And yet the board voted to keep Yang running things. Yahoo! is going down... it's just a matter of time. Sorry this had to happen to Randy...

Doesn't Yahoo realize that this is the guy who WROTE the spam primer years ago? I hope a (smart) human gets involved here before they embarrass themselves further.

You'd think if enough people complain they'd review the issue. This is True is one of the oldest and highest-quality newsletters around. C'mon Yahoo - do the right thing.

It's not the first time Yahoo have blocked sites maliciously. Read about Yahoo blocking legitimate job board sites.
