Yahoo is historically very very slow to respond to delisting requests. I'll ensure the ISP/BL admin has investigated and submitted a request on your server's behalf.

For an idea of what Jamyn is talking about, I sent Yahoo an email on February 12th and they didn't reply until February 22nd. I actually would not have even received this reply if I had not sent the email to a corporate email address that Yahoo has (that I won't divulge).

Yahoo's postmaster support is notorious for providing poor to no support and this is known industry-wide, they're almost as bad as Hotmail's support.

And you can't imagine what Hotmail is like. I've dealt with them on several occasions over the past year.

I see there are a couple of yahoo.com email threads. I just posted the latest information I have at http://forums.hostgator.com/showthread.php?p=104777.

Sometime last year, I just stopped contacting Hotmail's support because I could never get anywhere with them. Now I just use their SNDS service which provides me with a wealth of info about our servers and why they may (or may not) be blocked.

Yahoo supposedly provides a similar service however it's not public and apparently invite only. It's been in beta for "quite some time" and I was told that some time last year so who knows if it'll get released publicly at this point.
