I have yet to get a response of any kind from yahoo on any abuse problems. I periodically get told that someone has added me to a yahoo alias, clearly for the purpose of spam delivery. I reply negatively, and as yahoo suggests, report the abuse. Since I don't have a yahoo address, there are some parts of the abuse that don't work, but per the web site even with a non-yahoo address I should be able to direct them to not add me to any alias - and that's not working.
