    3. -----Original Message----- From: Sherri Souleyrette Hall [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, March 31, 2002 2:27 PM To: [email protected] I know this is off topic, so I'll apologize in advance - bring out the wet noodles if you wish. I know my spam mail has increased dramatically in the last few weeks, and wondered why. I checked my profile (when I found my login and password), and sure enough, all of the preferences had been changed to "YES" to receive mailings. Sherri FORWARDED MESSAGE: Please pass this on to your groups... Yahoo apparently changed the preferences of people who sub to yahoogroups during their recent "upgrade". This will amount to a ton of spam mail for yahoogroup members. Go to My Groups and click on Account Info, (upper right corner of your window) verify your password if it asks you to. Look for your "Yahoo! Mail address" - it's about the middle of your "Yahoo ID card" and click on the "Edit your marketing preferences" link. Change all those Yes's back to No's! Click Save Changes. http://my.yahoo.com/ ======== sure enough, I discovered this had happened to my accounts also.
