Yes we have already (few months back) patched RT not add 'Precedence: bulk'
to emails, however yahoo  problem exists even after that.

If you are interested in disabling 'Precedence: bulk' then you can easily do
it in a file

/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/RT/Action/SendEmail.pm (we have rt
installed from rpm your path may be different)

and then comment lines saying ...

$self->SetHeader( 'Precedence', "bulk" )
unless ( $self->TemplateObj->MIMEObj->head->get("Precedence") );
