Switch to a different Freemail website? :)

Either that, or raise the issue with Yahoo's Freemail tech support
people. You're not the only Yahoo Freemail user on the ShadowRN list
who suffers from this problem, Caxal Balam <arkainer@*****.com> gets
it too. Explain to Yahoo what the symptoms are (your name appearing
as Rand Ratinac to several people on a plain-text
mailing list you're on) and that you find it disappointing that their
service does not seem to offer full compatibility with the wide range
of different email clients used by the people that you send email to.
