I assume there's a TS04 code in that error message. It is indeed
likely due to user complaints, but they have something of a hair
trigger for IPs not known to them. They ought to be able to get you
sorted out.

Assuming you have a limited number of DKIM domains in play, register
them all with the Yahoo feedback loop. Find info on that same website.
The Yahoo FBL is DKIM-based. It's meant for big bulk senders, but I
suspect it may give you a modest boost when it comes to reputation.
More importantly, you'll be able to see which goober is complaining
about legit mail. Assuming you're very low volume and not an ESP/CRM
platform, you're probably wondering where should FBL complaints go? In
my case, I just have them sent to an alias at my domain that for now
comes to me for manual review. With the intent that if it grows too
big to handle, I can redirect the alias to automation later. It works
fine; I get the occasional complaint about a jazz newsletter I send
out and I just manually unsubscribe anyone who complains.

Is this new? Yahoo does adjust filters regularly but overall this kind
of issue/process is not really anything new. This isn't futile; it's
easily fixable. It can just feel a bit overwhelming or unfair for
smaller or hobby senders.
