Yahoo Japan email server issue

Rate this Entry
Since around mid night, I haven't been able to access the email server and the issue is still on going. Yahoo Japan is aware of this and working on it.

This means that it is the same issue for my spam filter address kaznsxcb-001 at yahoo dot co dot jp and it won't work.

Please note that using the 'Send email' option through this forum won't work for my email address but fine for all other users using non-Yahoo Japan address.


I can't read/write any emails through this domain so in the meantime, please contact me through LINE, SMS, Yahoo UK address, etc or if you don't know any of these info, please simply post in the comment section of this blog and I'll follow it up.


Will update this post once the issue has been sorted by Yahoo Japan.


Thank you.

    Update:
    As of 01/OCT/14 AM 00:15, still having the same problem.

    It seems that I can send email from time to time through 3rd party software using IMAP but I can't receive any email at all.
    I can't send/read any email through their web based platform.

    About 4,000,000 users are bing affected at the moment but fortunately, it's not cyber attack from outside and just an internal hardware system related.

    Hope it will be recovered soon.

    As of 11:45 on 02/Oct/14, still the same issue and Yahoo Japan is still working on it although they don't know the cause yet.... Worrying, for such huge major player in the industry.....

    My other Yahoo Japan addresses or the ones with different domains were not affected and since I don't use this particular one for other purpose, not a big issue but just annoying as I have no idea on who tried to contact me during this period.

    Sent test email from different domain to the affected address and so far, no error message returned so anyone who sent me an email won't know that I'm having email issue and simply thinks that I ignored them......

    Not good......

    As of 03:55 on 04/Oct/14, finally, the system is back up and running again.
    Took several days for Yahoo Japan to fix the issue and still no detailed info on what caused the issue but at least they informed the user on the progress regularly.

    They are slowly re-starting the system with limited number of users first but it should be back to normal by the end of today.
    All of my Yahoo Japan email addresses including the spam filtered one should be fine now so please feel free to contact me again.
    Also, after about a day or two, I received the error messages for sending email to the affected addresses so hope everyone who tried to contact me during this period got the same message.
