In order to see the problem, you need 2 yahoo addresses, one that sends to
the list and another that is getting list mail. AFAIK yahoo has not
reversed their policy. If you have a From header with @yahoo.com in it and
the mail is not coming from servers that match yahoo's SPF, yahoo will
reject it. What mailing lists can do is rewrite the From to the list
address, or drop it altogether.
