Hi Gino (& anyone else with a similar problem)
Mike Fisher has responded with the solution that I used to
short-circuit the whole mess. Signing-up for a Yahoo email account &
furnishing that email address to them as the primary email address
made all the goblins go away when I tried to join this egroup.
The "approval" message is a red herring. Mike did not reserve a
member approval privilege to himself when he established the group. I
wasn't able to discover the real problem until I pushed through to the
second page of my member profile and saw that my email address was
re-posted in red and there was a terse message saying that Yahoo was
unable to respond to my given primary email address. So... rather than
try to debug the path from Yahoo to a rival enterprise I bit the
bullet and signed up for a Yahoo email box (which I was sure would be
palatable to their filter software and I replaced the offending
primary email address with drmabuce@yahoo.com (drmabuSe was already
taken as usual..grrrrrrr) and Voila! the wiard world opened to me like
the proverbial oyster.
Try it, and if that fails, email me (I have a shiny new address)
and I'll be happy to help in any way I can.
If it works... welcome!
