Email deliverability status
This is a companion page to our email deliverability strategies page. It documents our bulk email servers and the status of our strategies for each host.
I made use of a ISP summary wiki page when doing these applications.

Major Mail Providiers
Bulk mail forms have only been submitted for the MF/PL shared bulk server IPs because PTP and Portside will have better luck handling their bulk mail status separately from MF/PL.
Feedback loop address submitted is: abuse@mayfirst.org. This address expands to Jamie's personal email. Jamie generally checks to see if the message appears to be a legit message from a member (and if so simply deleted complaint) or appears to spam from a compromised account (which triggers an investigation/ticket).
- AOL has a general page about mail delivery.
- 2012-11-16, Jamie have filled out the whitelist application, which also includes a feedback loop. The request confirmation code: 1353116873-116742 was recieved.
- Microsoft (live.com hotmail.com, outlook.com, msn.com)
- On 2012-11-16, Junk Email Reporting program (JMRP) was filled out (ticket number: 1188242357).
- Smart Network Data Services program (SNDS) tediously requires a separate submission for each IP address... not yet filled out.
- According to the troubleshooting faq, live.com does not have an "allow list" however, then do use return path, which seems like a terrible scam and bad for the Internet in general.
- Yahoo (which seems to include ATT and Bellsouth).
- 2012-10-18 Filled out the bulk mail status form
- 2012-10-18 received an email acknowledging receipt and asking for a link to our privacy policy. I responded with our Leadership Committee approved interim privacy policy. No word since then.
- 2012-11-16 sent follow up email asking about status
- ATT operates a postmaster support page and provide a form for removing a block.
- Google (gmail) provides a page for bulk senders but I haven't found any bulk sender application form or any indication of a feedback loop.
- Comcast has a general postmaster page
- 2012-11-16 - Filled out feedback loop application.
- No sign of a bulk sender application
- Roadrunner has a general postmaster page.
- 2012-11-16 filled out the feedback loop page (although seems to be operated by Return Path, same as Comcast, so may just be duplicating efforts
- Verizon has a page with some info on it
- Apparently no feedback loop...
- 2012-11-16 Filled out the white list application form
