From what I know of yahoo, there isn't a good solution to this. It's just the crappy way that Yahoo chooses to handle their mail. They immediately reject/delay every piece of mail that hits their server. If the sending server is a real one, it will try again. If its a spammer, it won't.

Maybe there is something on your mail server that you can change -- somethig to make it try again sooner?
