She can probably log in to the group's home page, mosie around there until she finds her own preferences. Somewhere along the line her "blocker" probably started rejecting mail from the group. The group software replies with a tit-for-tat and then blocks her address ... until she does a "confirmation routine". She activates a confirmation request from her page and then replies to it from her email address once it reaches her. That's my guess anyway.

I believe Yahoo states that somewhere in their TOS. I had to resub. William

It doesn't "drop" them. It puts them on hold, on ice, so to speak. Then the list manager has to go in and initiate a reconfirmation, or the one who has been put on hold has to log in and initiate one themselves (they can do it themselves). Yahoo does get sticky about bouncing addresses. But they are not banned, just blocked until the mail works again (and has been confirmed to do so). Daniel Diane Fields wrote:
