That suggests flaky DNS. Not necessarily your DNS, but Yahoo's DNS.

The only thing that can be done, in those cases, is to also whitelist the

Agreed - but isn't isolar:1:65 [/opt/courier/etc/smtpaccess] # grep 98.138.91 default 98.138.91 allow,RELAYCLIENT,BOFHCHECKDNS=0,BOFHCHECKHELO=0

"whitelist[ing] the sending IPs"?

Ok, but did you run makesmtpaccess? Check the timestamp on smtpaccess.dat
