I doubt that Yahoo would be thrilled if ESPs used the Yahoo API to
send bulk mail.  I suppose the ESP could take the message, use the API
to send one copy of the message to itself so it gets Yahoo's DKIM
signature, then remail that message to all the subscribers through the
ESP's outgoing mail, sort of a virtuous replay attack.

This could probably work but it feels overclever, and doesn't scale
since no two mail providers have the same API.
