Jackie and Chris, I seem to recall one way around this bit of Yahoo
nonesense is to send a message to a list you are subbed to and you may
then get a message back from Yahoo asking you to re-sub by simply
clicking a link.  That works quite effectively.

This said, if you are subbed to several Yahoo groups, it may be that
not all of them are playing up.  In that case its off to the dread
Yahoo Groups interface, joining up and all that.  Better not to go
there just now I think.

Cheers,

From Ray

Hi Chris

It seems to be resolved now, thanks to the moderator's intervention.
But I
have had this problem with Yahoo before, and I just can't remember how
I
fixed it, but it involved going to the Yahoogroups website and
resetting
something because the list I belonged to at the time caused no end of
problems, or rather, Yahoo did.

Anyway, it looks as if I'm up and running now, thanks.

Jackie
