What exactly is happening? Somebody is using your Tor exit node to access a website (yahoo mail) and using that to send spam? And this is being traced back to you by the spam being traced back to Yahoo, and Yahoo checking their webmail logs and finding your exit node's IP? One thing you *could* do is block Yahoo! mail in your server's exit policy, though it sounds to me like this is Yahoo!'s problem for allowing spam rather than yours...
