Bounce-backs on Yahoo e-mail accounts just happen occasionally. I've come to
accept it as a fact of life. (Although our home ISP is Earthlink, I use
Yahoo instead of Outlook on my home PC because of security/virus issues.
With Yahoo as my e-mail program, I've never had to worry about viruses.)
I've never asked Yahoo! why the bounce-backs happen. However my guess is
sometimes it's from overloaded servers. Jo's solution is a good one. If you
get a bounce-back message, resend your message.
It's a trade-off. I choose a virus-free home PC for occasional Yahoo server
problems, until my husband and I can afford a better solution. And, yes,
I've missed some important e-mails.

Sitting silently,
Doing nothing
Spring comes,
And the grass grows by itself
