As previously mentioned here on Deliverability.com, as of last month, Yahoo! Mail no longer participates in Goodmail’s CertifiedEmail program. For CertifiedEmail senders, this means CertifiedEmail messages no longer receive enhanced privileges such as guaranteed inbox placement, images displayed by default, or the CertifiedEmail icon.

On March 24th, we will decommission the MX record for ‘gms.mail.yahoo.com’, the dedicated domain to which senders have been routing CertifiedEmail for Yahoo! Mail recipients. To ensure no disruption of email delivery to Yahoo!, we recommend clients consult with Goodmail and make any necessary changes to their email systems in advance of this date.

Senders may contact our postmaster team via this form should any deliverability issues arise around the transition deadline. Our goal is to facilitate a smooth transition and to help ensure the best email experience for our users as always.

I'd be interested to see what advantages Goodmail ever offered over Return Path - apart from the obvious AOL benefits?

From what I've seen Return Path seems to offer a lot more out side of AOL, especially now Yahoo has the Return Path feedback loop - leaving Goodmail afterwards says a lot!

One time I looked at the Goodmail site they were talking about domain reputation, which seemed a bit of a reach as I didn't think were close to that yet...
Inbox filters still work on the visible from address, which is why proper spammers will spoof their emails to be 'from' the same address as they are 'to' and get passed the safe sender permissions and get in the inbox - grrrr. The only way to fix that is to associate domains with IP addresses or the agent address in the envelope so we are back to IP addresses again. I expect it is something like Gmail's Paypal and Ebay authentication?
That's probably another discussion though :-)

Good-mail, hot mail, or face book its all the same. but, its awesome putting something in a one domain.
