With SPF, only blueyonder customers can forge the MAIL FROM.  Of course,
anyone can still forge the From:.

I have to wonder if you can call this forgery at all, since blueyonder
has explicitly said that they have authorized those IP addresses to
use their domain name.

As others have pointed out, I would report this spam, probably through
spamcop.net.  SpamCop.net will take care of reporting it to blueyonder
with the correct abuse address.  If didn't use SpamCop, I would report
it to blueyonder directly.

If blueyonder can't do a good enough job of keeping their network
clean, I might consider banning the domain.  (It would take *way* more
than one report for me to ban them though.)
