Yahoo Mail Client

Raimson — Wed, 26 Sep 2018 12:07:07 GMT

We recently started experiencing a problem with Yahoo app on Android devices or the Yahoo client from receiving email through our PA's. Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

Thanks in advance.

@Raimson,

I'd take a look at the logs and make sure that you aren't inadvertently blocking anything.

On 9/19 there was an update to the applications and threats (version 8067) that included a number of changes for Yahoo mail. I'd say check your logs and see if you need to tweak a rule? What previously was ID'd as Yahoo-mail-base now will ID as yahoo-mail-downloading, yahoo-mail-posting and yahoo-mail-uploading:

I looked at the logs and there is nothing being blocked. These PA's are used for a semi-open public network where I work. The only thing we are really blocking is BitTorrent traffic and peer-to-peer traffic.

A few other people, who use this network for gaming, were unable to reach battle.net without using a VPN. I am starting to think this might be something downstream from the PA's.
