Unfortunately, yes.  Yahoogroups violates the SMTP standard by not
resending when the remote server reports a temporary failure.  My
system is currently using greylist, which means it reports temporary
failures *a* *lot*.  Some mails were getting through from
yahoogroups, but only under very specialized circumstances.

What this was affecting is the bridge from Yahoogroups to the
lojban-list local to lojban.org, so theoretically only people on the
non-yahoogroups side should have been affected.  If someone on the
yahoogroups side can confirm they saw these mails, that would be
dandy.

I had already whitelisted one of yahoogroups' server farms; I've
added the other, and I think that covers everything.

I doubt that *nobody* received it, as a lot more people are on the
yahoogroups list.
