Yahoo Complaint Feedback Loop
Introduction
In this article, we'll explain why feedback loops are important for Zoho CRM users who send emails and how to register for the Yahoo Complaint Feedback Loop. Taking these steps improves the chances that their emails will be delivered and reduces the likelihood that they'll be marked as spam or bounce back.
What is a feedback loop?
When businesses send a lot of emails from their CRM systems, sometimes those emails go to people who weren't supposed to receive them. If these people mark the email as spam, their email service providers (like Outlook or Yahoo) tell the internet provider. These providers then use this information to strengthen their spam filters and to judge how often the sender sends spam. If a sender gets multiple complaints, their future emails might be blocked or automatically sent to spam folders.
To help businesses avoid this scenario and improve how they send emails, most providers have a feedback loop system which notifies senders or their email platforms (like Zoho CRM) of spam complaints.
Why is it important to sign up for a complaint feedback loop?
Signing up for a complaint feedback loop is crucial because it gives businesses valuable information about their email reputations. If an internet service provider or mailbox provider like Gmail blocks a business's emails, this feedback helps clarify why by showing who marked the emails as spam so they can avoid sending emails to these people in the future—which can in turn improve their overall email practices and prevent future blocks.
How does Zoho CRM handle and respond to complaint feedback?
Zoho CRM proactively manages email feedback by automatically enrolling users in feedback loops for more than 25 email services through a universal feedback loop, and also by tracking complaints from Outlook services. This feedback is vital for maintaining the reputation of the email IP addresses Zoho CRM uses to send users' emails.
Whenever Zoho CRM receives a complaint report, it ensures that no future emails are sent to the flagged email address. This complaint data is further fed into Zoho CRM's email credibility system, where businesses can find a dashboard that shows their email credibility scores and offers suggestions for improvement. By following these suggestions, businesses can reduce email bounces and prevent spam filters from catching their emails.
Why should Zoho CRM users personally register for Yahoo's Complaint Feedback Loop?
Yahoo operates a Complaint Feedback Loop (CFL) specifically designed for domain owners, which means that only the owner of a domain can sign up for Yahoo's CFL. During the registration process, Yahoo sends a unique code to the domain's postmaster address, which is required to complete the registration. This specific requirement means that Zoho CRM cannot automatically register its users for Yahoo's CFL.
It's important that Zoho CRM users register their domains with Yahoo CFL themselves. By doing so, they can receive direct feedback about any complaints from Yahoo email recipients. This feedback is crucial for maintaining a good email reputation and ensuring effective email delivery through Zoho CRM. The following section will guide you through the detailed process of registering your domain for Yahoo CFL.
How can a user register for yahoo feedback loop?
Below are the steps involved in preparing to registering a domain with Yahoo CFL:
- DKIM authentication: Make sure your domain is DKIM authenticated in Zoho CRM. This is necessary, because Yahoo CFL only accepts emails that are DKIM authenticated. You can find more information about setting up DKIM authentication in Zoho CRM here.
- Set up a postmaster email: You need to have a postmaster email address for your domain (like postmaster@yourdomain.com). This is where Yahoo will send the unique code needed to complete the CFL registration process.
Below are the steps involved in registering for Yahoo CFL:
- Follow this URL: https://senders.yahooinc.com/complaint-feedback-loop
- Scroll down and click Enroll Now.
- Fill out the CFL registration form as shown below:
Note: In the Reporting Email field, you should enter abuse@zohocrm.com for all DCs except Europe and use abuse@eu.zohocorp.com for EU DC, so that Yahoo will send complaint reports to Zoho CRM, allowing us to handle complaints and thereby improve your email credibility score (read more about email credibility in Zoho CRM here).
- Upon clicking Get Verification Code, you will receive an email with a verification code at your postmaster address (postmaster@<your-domain>).
- Copy and paste the verification code in the Yahoo CFL registration form.
- Click the Create Request button.
Once the request has been submitted to Yahoo, the domain will be enrolled into the Yahoo CFL system within 36 to 72 hours. Any spam reported Yahoo users report will be forwarded to the registered "reporting email". Please note that Yahoo will not send any follow-up emails confirming the enrollment of your domain in the CFL.
