contact at yahoo mail? (they think we're an open relay :< )

Today our email forwarders started getting this from yahoo.com
mail handlers:

553 Mail from 216.220.40.247 not allowed - VS99-IP1 deferred - see
help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/defer/defer-02.html (#5.7.1)
Connection closed by foreign host.

Which when you go look at that page basically tells you you're probably
an open relay (which we're not), etc.

Can any mail admins at Yahoo contact me offlist, or post what the
restrictions are or at what levels this will kick in?
