Yahoo deferrals should not cause this. The message should be simply
queued and retried in the MTA with no notification to Mailman. Even a
"delayed" message to Mailman (e.g., your message hasn't been delivered
for 4 hours - will keep trying) should not result in a bounce, and in
my experience, Yahoo always ultimately accepts the message before the
MTA gives up and returns failure to Mailman.
