Oops,
Actually, that was goofy. All you would need to do is accept mail for
yahoo.com, but it's still not necessary to do it. I dumped on Qmail while
testing it, and it really is solid.

Howdy,
Here's a really cheesy way to flush the queue of Yahoo.com messages without
flushing everything else:
Set up a virtual domain mta206.mail.yahoo.com. Set postmaster as the only
user and dump all the yahoo messages into that box and deal with it later
(panic button solution). Or alternatively, try to bounce them back to the
sender. To do this set up the virtual domain mail.yahoo.com with no locals.
User will get the can't find host error (hopefully). The second option would
allow users to try again later. You can inject a message to everyone when
yahoo comes back up. I doubt Qmail will fail on you though. Better advice
might be to have a beer and look at it later...

p.s.- I've never tried this, so pretend you see some sort of disclaimer
here.
