Same problem here; it's a company server which generates a lot of
automatic "thank you for your contact" messages, and such.

I suspect that Yahoo is doing some sort of greylisting, although they
won't admit it. What's weird though is that usually greylisting is
"prove yourself once and be done with it".

I love though how they had a "if you send bulk mail and want help
getting it delivered, fill out this form"-- so they'll help
sufficiently cooperative spammers but meddle with people by default.
