Mail to yahoogroups for two days is giving some strange responses. Mail is attempting to go to 172.16.3.10 when sent to a yahoogroup. This looks real strange....that block is reserved I believe? Wondering why theyre resolving to that address? Router mismanagement? Poisoning? I dont know...but its causing some grief here... Yahoo is real lax in giving some human contact addy, perhaps the esteemed group here can shed some light... Thanks..
$ host -t mx groups.yahoo.com groups.yahoo.com is an alias for groups1.vip.scd.yahoo.com. groups1.vip.scd.yahoo.com mail is handled by 1 mta2.grp.scd.yahoo.com. groups1.vip.scd.yahoo.com mail is handled by 1 mta3.grp.scd.yahoo.com. groups1.vip.scd.yahoo.com mail is handled by 1 mta1.grp.scd.yahoo.com. ok, so: $ host mta2.grp.scd.yahoo.com mta2.grp.scd.yahoo.com has address 66.218.66.217 $ host mta3.grp.scd.yahoo.com mta3.grp.scd.yahoo.com has address 66.218.66.218 $ host mta1.grp.scd.yahoo.com mta1.grp.scd.yahoo.com has address 66.218.66.216 Where's the RFC1918 in that? Maybe the problem is fixed already. --Tk On Sat, 21 Dec 2002, blitz wrote:

Yahoo! does use RFC 1918 space internally, but we're not using that block. Therefore it's (hopefully) not something gone wacky on our end. Do you have access to a command line somewhere that you can run dig from? If so, please mail me privately and we can try to work out what's going on. Doug Barton Yahoo! DNS Administration
