E-Mail Delivery to BT and Yahoo
20:44 05/01/2018
Update - We are still seeing some rejections and delayed messages to these mail providers and are continuing to work to resolve these problems. We apologise for the ongoing nature of this issue and for the inconvenience caused.

Identified - We are seeing that a number of rejections to BT and Yahoo are being caused by badly formed SPF records. If you are having issues sending to addresses with BT and Yahoo from our systems we recommend using the following SPF:-
v=spf1 exists:%{i}.mta.spf.extendcp.co.uk exists:%{i}.web.spf.extendcp.co.uk -all
If you need any assistance in updating this our support team will be happy to help.

Investigating - We are seeing some failures as well as delays with Mail Delivery to BT and Yahoo addresses from messages sent from our network.
Our System Administrators are currently working on this and we will provide further updates here as we have them.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused as a result of this
Update Jan 7, 16:42 GMT - The only communication we've had from the other parties is that the previous advice holds true and that good mail sent from our clean mail IP addresses from domain's with a correctly formatted spf record should result in the mail being received correctly by mailboxes they provide. Communication is slow but ongoing and we're pushing as hard as we can for a definite resolution of this issue.
