I'm using .NET 2.0 (VS 2005) on a web server. I have some links I put in
HTML based Email, yahoo mail seems to want to replace parts of my links with
http://mail.yahoo.com/config/login?... -- this is causing problems for my
customers. Is there any way to work around this problem?

Thanks, Rob.

Unfortunately, no. That is a Yahoo thing. Perhaps you could talk to them, as
they have the ability to parse anything coming into their servers.

It is likely sending your link after the yahoo bits. It is possible the
problem is related to you being marked as SPAM. If so, contact Yahoo and see
if you can get un-black listed.
