yahoo admin mail contact (or answer)

Hello all,

 

We put into production a new mailserver 2 weeks ago, and we can send email
to everybody (no complaints and testing) except yahoo!

 

All their mailservers reset the TCP connections, before SMTP even starts.
This happens randomly on all their mta (look below). As a sequence almost
half the email we send to yahoo stay in the queue for a day in our
mailserver and then get discarded (with a connection died message).

 

We get the SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK normal handshake and then a TCP reset from
their mailserver.

 

Any idea or off-list contact is very welcome.

 

>From their website I could not find a way to email them.
