You don't need to ban yahoo members, you just most likely don't want
them posting.

As of right now, today, you should prevent yahoo.com addrs from
posting to your lists.  Of course that could all change tomorrow if
Hotmail published a dmarc p=reject record.  However, given the yahoo
fallout, I think it will be a while before we see anymore of this
kinds of shenanigans.  I'm still predicting that yahoo pulls their
dmarc record (unless of course they are getting out of the end-user
email biz)
