Why hasn't Yahoo rolled back its 'reject' policy by now?


As the most-recent public statement from Yahoo, this might have some tidbits in it that are relevant to your question:

You mean the part where they say:
"We know there are about 30,000 affected email sending services, but we also know that the change needed to support our new DMARC policy is important and not terribly difficult to implement. We have detailed the changes we are requiring here <http://yahoomail.tumblr.com/post/82426900353/yahoo-dmarc-policy-change-what-should-senders-do>."

I.e., 'not our problem'
