Pretty simple actually.  Just look in the email headers of the email.
You'll find a line like this right above the date/from fields in the
headers:

Received: from [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] by web10706.mail.yahoo.com

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the client web browser, NOT the
yahoo.com server.

All emails by me are PGP signed; a lack of signature indicates a forgery.
