Apparently the message was cut-off by yahoo. The full message returned
by our mail server included the real reason:

554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [66.163.189.87] blocked using
dnsbl.sorbs.net; Currently Sending Spam See:
http://www.sorbs.net/lookup.shtml?66.163.189.87; [...]

We rely on a few anti-spam blocklists such as SORBS to avoid accepting
mails from servers that are known to send spam. In this case, one of the
outgoing mail servers of Yahoo is currently listed there. Yahoo needs to
take action to get it removed from this list.

Sorry for the inconvenience that caused for you.
