A week ago, I posted a topic about slowness in sending emails to Yahoo Email addresses. After working with Yahoo, they are no longer performing these extra checks against our email services.

We are no longer seeing any errors when managing .biz domains. It appears that there was a communication error with the .biz Registry that caused this problem.

2:55 pm Eastern Time

We have received reports that managing and/or creating .biz domains are generating errors. Our Team is aware of this and is currently investigating. This does not effect any .biz domains that are currently setup, this error appears only when attempting to make chances to your .biz domain(s). No other domain types are effected.

During the past 10 minutes we’ve been receiving reports of customers having issues while processing renewals and purchasing new domains.  We’re looking into the cause of the issue and will post further information as soon as we know more.

Earlier today we had errors when Customers were trying to renew or register a domain. Even though the error message displayed that it did not work, all renewals and registration went through successfully. Our team has insured that this type of error message will not appear falsely in the future. Sorry for the confusion this may have caused.
