yahoo declines to recognize my contact

Avatar Eric Jervis
I've now tried twice, once on the new Sierra machine and once on the El Capitan drive, to reply to an email I had this morning from Belgium. Each time I get a this reply:

----- Forwarded Message -----
From: "[undisclosed email]" <[undisclosed email]>
To: [undisclosed email]
Sent: Thursday, 23 March 2017, 15:41
Subject: Failure Notice

Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the following address.

<[undisclosed email]>:
No MX or A records for hemma.be

Which is curious because we have communicating for several years with no trouble!

Eric, from what I can see on line, this is a problem that Yahoo has occasionally. I suggest waiting a day and trying again.

It's either a mail server set-up at the other end or a DNS problem at Yahoo. I don't believe you can do anything about either. You could try slaughtering a goat but that hasn't been going so well for me lately.

Nice one Tony, I'd copied it to my daughter, who received it OK, so I think yahoo was the problem, as she then forwarded it to Belgium.
