To be honest, I fully share the doubts you expressed — whether anybody will 
help you here.  You are basically expecting that someone will go and find a 
recent message resent by Yahoo’s maillist server to look how it is shown by 
K-9.  The simplest way to do that, as I see, is to subscribe some random group 
there, wait for a while for a message in hope that it will be subjected to the 
issue, and then unsubscribe.

Nothing hard actually, but it was ten times easier for you to attach that very 
problematic message you already have.  You did not bother to do that, however.  
Thus, we came to conclusion, that you are not much interested in solving this 
little problem.  Why does anybody else need to be more?
