Hi Joy,

Yahoo is having a problem. Apparently they made some changes and it has
had a bad effect on Yahoo mail across the internet. Another group I
subscribe to - Clayart - with several thousands members world wide is
having the same problem, and they are using a different mail
distribution system. Yahoo mail goes to spam box. I haven't heard of a
fix yet.
