So basically I don't know if I should manage the users of which I receive 554 delivery errors or not. Obviously they (or at least part of them, as I've noticed) do have a yahoo.com otherwise they couldn't have e-mailed me.

Has anyone else noticed this? I'm not sure how to deal with this.

These 554 delivery errors are emails that were blocked as spam by either the user or Yahoo. I've been dealing with an increasing number of these as a hacker stole one of my domains email addresses. Even though we only send notices to members who have subscribed several IPs have blocked us resulting in a large number of bounced emails with the 554 error. Most are still valid email addresses that won't accept our mail. I have opted to manage mine as the use will see the PM and add our good addresses to their address book.
