Typing the full @yahoo.com (or other domain?) Could you elaborate if there was an error displayed at the top of the page in red?

You should be able to import most of your Yahoo contacts (yes I realize this is a manual process but see the below):
http://address.mail.yahoo.com/?1&VPC=import_export (or similar URL) > choose Yahoo! CSV (or Microsoft Outlook)
Then open Zimbra Desktop > Preferences Tab > Address Book Tab > Import CSV.
As IM contacts aren’t imported easily without field re-arrange I’ve filed
Bug 30258 - Map Yahoo! fields to Zimbra fields on yahoo_ab.csv imports
Remember this is a port of the server, so all of the services of course sync with ZCS - try out the hosted demo and you may just become a convert:

We do have Yahoo integration planned as I mentioned above “(Note that some apps don’t sync to Yahoo! servers yet so the data is local.)” Yahoo IMAP access through Zimbra Desktop to all free accounts was the first step that we’ve added since Beta 1’s Plus IMAP access.
Several methods to do so will become available shortly (from both Zimbra & Yahoo! ends of the spectrum) since those are internal RFE’s I’ve created
Bug 30249 - offline : RFE for Yahoo! services intergration for you to watch & vote on (though it obviously has strategic value so we do in-fact plan to implement it). Zimbra is Open Source and we’re very pleased to see more Yahoo! members join our community. To understand how you can shape the future of what Zimbra is see:
Open Source Product Management: How do features get into Zimbra? » Zimbra :: Blog
For instance you may just want to
open an RFE for simple one click contact imports from Yahoo Address Book on the Zimbra Desktop setup page; if you do post a link back here so that others can easily find and vote on it as well - we're community & customer driven - you have the reigns.
