I have two thoughts about this.
First, I believe smtp.mail.yahoo.com requires SSL or TLS connections, which
Blat does not directly support. What I do, and what I recommend, is to use
stunnel from stunnel.org to provide that SSL / TLS connection. SSL / TLS
connections are encrypted, and provide an extra layer of security to ensure
your messages are sent without being readable by anyone in the middle.
Second, the error message "450 Requested mail action not taken: mailbox
unavailable" tells me that either the Yahoo server does not like your email
address, or that the server does not like it over an insecure connection on
port 25. I have not seen this error message for myself, so I am thinking
that you will have better luck using stunnel to provide the SSL / TLS
connection.
If you choose to use stunnel, here is a sample entry to add to your
stunnel.conf file:
; SMTP service, listens on localhost:125
[yahoomail-smtps]
accept=127.0.0.1:125
connect=smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465
With the above entry in stunnel.conf, you can then tell Blat to use server
127.0.0.1:125. Blat will then connect to IP 127.0.0.1 on port 125, which is
stunnel, and stunnel will provide the SSL connection to Yahoo.
