You may want to check that your storage quota is not used up, but yahoo's is pretty high, so this may be unlikely. Also, make sure you do not have a "vacation" message on the bounces emails back. Double check that these emails are not showing up in your spam folder as well. Lastly, check with the sender and make sure that they have your email written exactly the right way. This is the most common cause of bounce-backs.
