I sent a message to their Help Desk and got a document about Yahoo Pager and
firewalls.  It said the pager uses port 5050.  It didn't say whether it was
TCP or UDP.  I setup a plug-gw (transparent proxy for TCP) but the silly thing
still didn't work.  Repeated attempts to get clarification from their
so-called "Help Desk" only got me multiple copies of the same stupid document
that mentions the port, but not the protocol.  It's clear that they rely on a
bot to answer their e-mail.  I do not know the magic keyword to use to get
your mail in front of a human being.  Sorry!
