It depends if the recepient of your mail decided to take legal action.
Yahoo does keep track of the TCP/IP address when you sign up and also when you send a mail, so it would posssible although difficult. As theywould then have to go to your ISP and find out who was logged into the server with that TCP/IP address at that time etc....

If legal action was taken it would take your ISP less than a minute to find out who it was. RADIUS logs everything, even the number you dialled in from.
