Yahoo Groups has recently made some changes to their servers and to their privacy policy. As the DEFAULT, they now have arranged it so that yahoo groups members will receive SPAM. To change these setting, follow these instructions: Yahoo has revised its privacy policy. Your former preferences have now been changed. You will need to reset them. Here's how. After logging in to Yahoo, click the tab at the top of the page that says "Account Info." Enter your password. When that page opens, scroll to just under your listed email addresses. Then click on "Edit Marketing Preferences" in the "member Information" section, just below "Alternate Email 1" When that page opens, you'll see that Yahoo has set each option to YES (please send me spam). You'll need to click on each and every option to change it to NO. Near the bottom of the page, be sure to check NO about phone and postal delivery of advertising then click "Save changes." maybe this'll slow down the spam for you karl
