Presumably your mail system is still broken somehow.

Or Chiark generally hates email from Yahoo. One of the two.

I'll have to sort out a Proper Account, then.

Actually all I see are 450 delays. What was the text of the bounce?

"Sorry, I wasn't able to establish an SMTP connection. (#4.4.1)
I'm not going to try again; this message has been in the queue too
long."

It gives up 25 hours after queueing with the Yahoo MTA.

It fibs; it tried between 2000 on one day and 1445 on the next. Also, of course, it could establish an SMTP connection, it just got a 4xx response.

RFC 2821 says the retry time should be at least 4-5 days (section 4.5.4.1).

I've fettled something to accept your mail personally, FWIW.
