List Problems - Something to Check

List Problems - Something to Check

2002-06-30 by Martin Wesley

In poking around Yahoo's help I found the following info which may be of interest to those who are not getting their posts:

"If group messages sent to your email address are returned to Yahoo! Groups as undeliverable ("bouncing"), your Yahoo! Groups account may be temporarily disabled. 
Messages can be returned for several reasons: 

  a.. Your mailbox may be full -- try deleting messages from your Inbox. 
  b.. Your ISP may have a backlog of email to process -- contact your ISP. 
  c.. Your ISP may be blocking email from Yahoo! Groups -- contact your ISP. 
In many cases, Yahoo! Groups can automatically reactivate your account once the delivery problem is solved. However, in some cases you will need to manually reactivate your account: 
  1.. Visit your My Groups page. 
  2.. Look for a bounce alert near the top of the page. 
  3.. Click the Alert link to reactivate your account."
Something to check.

There is general info on the Groups at:

http://help.yahoo.com/help/groups/

The path to contacting Yahoo is to go through one of the help sections until you get to a choice of, "Is this enough information?" If you click no you will get and e-mail form to Yahoo customer service. If anyone has any luck on that path let us know.

Martin,
This has happened on two occasions to me, both times on weekends. It took me
a while to find the "bounce alert' that you've noted. My account did return
to normal after reactivation.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
