This wasn't blocked because the Yahoo.groups server was listed, the block 
occurred because  204.127.131.124 was listed.   204.127.131.124 is your 
receiving server.  The CESmail server checking stops when it hits an IP that 
is listed in one of the bl's you have set your account to use.

The listing of  204.127.131.124 was caused by you reporting your own mail 
server as the source of the spam you were reporting.  SC picked the IP up as 
the source because of a dns/rdns mismatch on the AT&T server.  You did not 
catch this and reported your server as the spam source 25 times over a few 
days.

We did catch this on Friday and put the AT&T server in our trusted relay 
table, so spam you have reported since then has been getting to the right 
source.
