Good friggin question.  As far as I can tell, from the bounce logs of 
some servers that I run, as long as you're sending from something other 
than Yahoo, you're ok.  On the receiving end - yahoo, hotmail, aol, 
comcast, at least, will drop incoming mail form yahoo; so far gmail does 
not (though they claim to implement DMARC).
