If you see deferrals even for your normal mailing telling yahoo might
help

Your problems may not go away totally but you will see less mails
getting deferred. I reduce the minimal_backoff_time for yahoo alone to
around 1 minute so that there are more retries. But, as usual, YMMV


If you are doing bulk mailing yahoo does not accept mails at the rate
you would like to. Even if all they are all legitimate. Tell your
clients not to use an yahoo id.
