NRC MAILER-DAEMON message?

Update 9/15/ 2016
(Brace)

Seems the problem is popping up again. I know allegations is going be looking at this. Is it going to take me contacting the NRC's Chairman in order to get region 1 to do your job professionally? 

I am disgusted with the treatment of this problem. I can't believe there isn't a documented trail. It is as if you are habituated into making any old excuse to not document the sins of the department and Allegations.

I can't believe the bs excuses you threw at me:

1) its a IT problem and not anything to do with allegations, we don't have to document this.
2) its beyond stupid, using a NRC account within the NRC IT system to so call send test e-mails to validate yahoo e-mails continue to get received by the NRC. it just lazy!!! I had effectively summarized this article to everyone and nobody would accepted the facts as I know it. I have to go by facts and the Allegation department gets to make half ass assumptions to delegitimized a concerned member of the public and I imagine nuclear industry employees.  

It's 12/12/12 all over again...

The NRC promised to talk to me about this...they called me once when I wasn't home. Nobody has talked to me yet. So you get it, the agency tries to contact you at a inoperative time, they give you a bum number, they don't have the courtesy  to notified by email of the time of the call...I guess they give you one shot to talk about an event and that is it.

I got no "easy" transparency on my first shot at this contacting the agency...I just knew how to manipulate the agency by playing one level of the agency against the other. they were trying to blow me off!  Easy and persistent contact to resolve a problem is the enabler of transparency...and the agency has to hold themselves scrutinizable to the quality of their communications. 

The deal I was going to talk to a highly specialist...not a generalist who sees the big picture. He'd tell me the worthless technical details... but no chance of knowing the big picture and the power to change what is wrong. This technical specialist would be amazing in he area...but a absolute idiot with seeing the big picture and the skills to impose changes.  

Get our discussion transcripted...that is all i want. 

US regulator: Transparency is key Fukushima lessonThe Associated Press
A top U.S. nuclear regulator says one of key lessons learned from Fukushima's disaster is the importance of a strong and independent operator that is transparent.
How often does allegation's blow off peoples concerns without merit and then state gross inaccuracies without due diligence? I guess he is technically correct, but they do block globally peoples emails.

Mr. Mulligan:

Good morning.  Chairman Macfarlane’s office asked that I contact you concerning your inability to send emails to NRC staff.  Please accept my apology for the difficulties you have encountered.  We have seen an increase in spam and other unwanted emails originating from IP addresses registered and belonging to Yahoo!  We use a product, Cisco Ironport, to detect and block spam.  As a result, incoming email traffic from the Yahoo address is “throttled” by Cisco and is denied by our firewall from reaching its destination.  Cisco has been communicating on our behalf with appropriate contacts at Yahoo! regarding their outbound mail issue and have been assuring us that they’re working on it.  We will continue to work with Cisco and Yahoo in an effort to help them resolve this issue.

Please contact me at....... should you wish to discuss this matter further.

Dec 6 @5:30pm: I e-mailed the NRC chairman yesterday...really her staff....she had somebody call me named Jack L from region 1. My 90 year old mother in law took the message...it got a little garbled. I am at my house right now?


What drive me crazy is the NRC won't help me understand why I am getting these Yahoo Daemon bounces with my emails. You notice how I am beginning to use the the Google mail account. Should have changed over years ago.

Ultimately, if the NRC took it seriously there would have to be a public notification. We are having spam issue from Yahoo...we had to create a filter to not overwhelm our system. That is why you are getting a yahoo DEAMON warning that the NRC is rejecting your emails.

Spam reputation hinders Yahoo mail delivery

Some yahoo.com e-mail users don't have much to shout "Yahoo!" about these days.
According to Don Hone, an e-mail administrator for OIT, Yahoo's spam reputation has fallen to the point where messages are being consistently rejected by other providers, including Ohio University. Attempts to contact administrators at Yahoo have so far been unsuccessful.
"At this point," Hone says, "Yahoo users who need to send e-mail to OHIO students or employees may want to consider moving to a different e-mail provider."
Like many institutions across the country, Ohio University uses reputation-based filtering as part of its defense against spam. In the automated spam filtering world, "bad reputation" has a very specific meaning. When a company, Internet provider, or institution sends too much spam from a particular server, that server gets points taken away from its reputation. If a server's reputation drops too low, that server gets blacklisted. According to Hone, approximately half of Yahoo's e-mail servers currently are experiencing some sort of spam-related restriction.
Students and employees who are forwarding their accounts to Yahoo may wish to consider disabling that forwarding and using their university account instead. Although messages forwarded from OHIO to Yahoo will get through, replies from Yahoo to OHIO may be delayed or blocked.

Symptoms and cures for Yahoo users

The most common symptom of spam trouble for a Yahoo user trying to reach an OHIO address is a rejection message. For e-mails sent from Yahoo to OHIO, the rejection notice will have the following characteristics:
  • From: MAILER-DAEMON@yahoo.com
  • Subject: Failure Notice
  • Reason: "Too many recipients received this hour"
OIT has communicated directly about this issue with students and employees who are forwarding their mail to Yahoo. Options outlined in that message include:
  • disabling forwarding and using Catmail or Exchange
  • opening a new account with a different e-mail provider and updating OHIO forwarding to point to that new account
  • continuing to read mail on Yahoo, but using Catmail or Exchange when sending to OHIO users

About a hour ago I called the NRC hotline about this mailer- daemon problem...wondering why lots of my e-mails were getting rejected by the NRC. I always use yahoo mailer. Half go through and the others get rejected.
Is this the problem below?
I wonder if I use google, and it works, we know what the problem is. My guess it is this. I pity the rest of the Yahoo mail users?
I'd still like a phone call back verifying yahoo is the problem...
Makes me wonder if I am blacklisted...not that paranoid yet.

Sir,
1) Did you begin processing my Dec 2 VY 2.206 I sent to allegation...did you receive this email on Dec 2? I am just try to figure out what is wrong.
2) Do you believe the below "message expired for domain nrc.gov and host received too many recipients"?
Yahoo is telling me the nrc.gov received too many emails and thus my e-mail was rejected by the NRC....not seen by allegations.
I honestly thought it inconceivable the NRC could be filtering me or blacklisting me...anyone...but it can be looked like that with getting these Yahoo DAEMON rejection.
3) the intent of condition or cause question...is this happening to anyone else and why?
4) I have a fully functional virus scan program...Norton....I don't think it is a virus at my end but who knows.
5) Could this be coming from the gov servers and outside the NRC...but still filtering me not intentionally. But too much yahoo spam?
6) It just looks like a some gov server is unintentionally filtering me or it being overloaded by yahoo scam.
Thank you for the response.
Mike
