That is what most of the discussion in this thread comes down to. The issue goes well back farther than a year and the Church ICS department has been working on it well longer than a year. Unfortunately the issue is not in control of the ICS department and will take some time to get below the email provider block limits and must stay there for a period of time.

Re: Yahoo inbox not receiving church emails
This email issue is a big problem. I use zoho.com for my email. For a long time I received messages sent through the church system just fine then just over a year ago I stopped receiving emails from the church, stake or ward. When I started hearing about email issues, I contacted zoho and they insisted that they never adjusted filters or changed anything.
At the time I was on a stake communications committee so I requested a churchofjesuschrist.org email address to use for contacting media. I put that address on my ward directory and started receiving messages from the church again. Now I have been released from my communications calling and the church is taking away my churchofjesuschrist email address.
Since the church hasn’t fixed their compatibility issues, I have to set up a new address in order to receive church email. What email providers are compatible with the church system? I don’t want to use google but I will if I have to.

Re: Yahoo inbox not receiving church emails
Well, Google works for me. And there are others that still work, I believe, But I use gmail so I have not had to worry about it.
Some other topics in the forum discuss which ones seem to work and which ones do not.

I believe anything in the AOL/Yahoo/Verizon family won't work.

Re: Yahoo inbox not receiving church emails
I know someone who had a US Cellular email address that didn't work about the time this started - when he investigated he found it was being hosted on Yahoo servers. There are probably others that could be affected as well if their provider is contracting email service through AOL or Yahoo. I have seen a post or two from those with Gmail addresses who had troubles but I have never had a problem receiving with Gmail (at least not that I know of).russellhltn wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2023 11:05 pm I believe anything in the AOL/Yahoo/Verizon family won't work.

Re: Yahoo inbox not receiving church emails
This is "still" an issue. Feels like years now. Not everyone has a Gmail email account. Yahoo still has a huge email user base.

Re: Yahoo inbox not receiving church emails
My registered email address is on the Yahoo domain. After years with nothing from the Church I started getting messages and notices about four or five weeks ago. Just information, but I have the Church domain whitelisted for my email account.

Re: Yahoo inbox not receiving church emails
Interesting. I might have to do some testing with one of our leaders that uses a yahoo address.
