It would be best to use the smtp server of your isp, as yahoo has disabled public relaying (At least I hope--as should everyone else). In the info that they sent you, they probably provided you with a name that you can use such as "mail.yourisp.net" or "smtp.yourisp.com". Your isp knows that mail originating from your internal IP address and therefore should route it through. The one exception that I have found so far is MSN--they drop all port 25 traffic destined for any server other than their relay. And they will not relay for other domains, so you are stuck if you use MSN. If you do, switch ISP's.
