This may be of use to some here. Over the Christmas period, and into the new year I was not receiving anything from the mailing lists here. I use a yahoo.co.uk address so that when the spam starts to get to bad I can drop it and use another. I had it set to forward everything received to my real email address, but it seems that since Yahoo "improved" their email that does not work. As soon as I turned off the forwarding mails started to accumulate in my Yahoo mailbox. Now I use the POP3 collecting route. So if any other Yahoo UK users feel that they are being left out, try changing your method of collection.
