Yahoo decomissioning Goodmail MXs

Yahoo announced today that they would be decommissioning the Goodmail specific MX machines as of March 24. Goodmail customers should talk to Goodmail about necessary transition issues. On Yahoo’s end, my understanding is that they are working to make the transition as painless as possible for the customers of Goodmail.
This seems to be the final nail in the coffin for Goodmail at Yahoo.
I’ll have more next week on how senders can cope with the loss of Goodmail certification.
