Yahoo!'s abuse contact from whois:

OrgAbuseEmail:  network-abuse at cc.yahoo-inc.com

now sends an autoresponse that tells you to go to a web form to report
spam:

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/spam.html

but the link doesn't work--it just redirects to a generic Yahoo!  help
page at:

http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?page=product&locale=en_US&y=PROD_MAIL_ML

So how does a non-Yahoo! account holder report spam originating from
Yahoo!'s network?
