Yes, I got that heap of junk too.
The problem is that Yahoo is set up to gather information about
consumers, not to provide an email hosting service. The sooner everybody
removes their mailing lists from this company, the better.
In the mean time, www.egroups.co.uk does still work, and I was able to
sign on to a new list.
I wonder if it would be possible to write a script that would send a
mail to every list on Yahoo, suggesting that the list should be moved?
