Spam and Yahoogroups

2002-04-02 by Steve Greenfield

Hello Everyone,

Recently, Yahoo has change it's policy on sharing user information
with third parties.

How does this effect us? They will provide your information to
Telemarketers, Bulk mailers and Spammers.

If you have created a user profile with Yahoo you should go to it
and make any changes to your "Marketing Preferences" you feel
necessary. I personally changed all the "Yes" boxes to "No".

Here's what you need to do:

Go to My Groups http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups and verify your
password if it asks you to, click on Account Info (at the top of
the page), and verify your password if it asks you to again, and
your Yahoo ID card comes up. Click on 'Edit your Marketing
Preferences' (middle of the page under your email address) and
change all those Yes's to No's! Make sure you also scroll to the
bottom of the page and change the Telemarketing and Bulk Mailing
options as well.

Click Save Changes and Exit

Steve, the moderator
