Nope, I have a yahoo.co.nz e-mail address & I have just sent test e-mail to & from my yahoo e-mail address & I can get them ok

181754 2003-10-10 00:05:00 I am using MS Outlook 2000 with a Clear Net ISP email addresse sending it to yahoo ... Never had this issue before, I just grabbed the addresses off my contacts... nomad (3693)
181755 2003-10-10 00:07:00 It suggests your ISP has been banned due to open relaying.

More here (help.yahoo.com)

The above link is where your e-mail was directing you to look, so presumably you have already.

There is not much you can do :(, part from e-mailing clear & asking them about this....

That's not necessarily true!
You can change your smtp server - which is what is used for outgoing messages - to your ISP's SMTP Server . To do this Tools > Accounts > [yahoo account] > Properties > Outgoing Mail and change smtp . mail . yahoo . com (or whatever it is) to smtp . clear . net . nz (if that is Clears SMTP Server) and you will be able to send emails no sweat . . .
I do this with my orcon account as Orcon's SMTP's don't seem to like Ximian too much, even when I tell it POP before SMTP with Authentication . .
