I don't understand this at all. I didn't have to do anything. I can still access the stuff from my regular mail account. I do have the Yahoo Messenger (which is wonderful BTW). So, I had a Yahoo ID already. When my ISP mail server went down I hopped over to Yahoo and had e-mail set up in 5 minutes by entering my existing password. When I tried to post to the motm list it would not let me. But, a link came up that absolutely held my had through the process and had me posting in about 5 minutes. My problem is now that I don't need the mail account any more I cannot figure out how to close it.

I'm not even going to bother; I'm sick of filling out web forms already. -----Original Message----- From: David Bivins [mailto:dbivins@...] Sent: Tuesday, 30 January, 2001 10:54 AM To: 'motm@yahoogroups.com' Subject: RE: [motm] First pics of my MOTMized Wiard MiniWave This is pissing me off bigtime. I *had* a Yahoo ID at some point, and I'm not really interested in setting up another account. Worse, I am the *owner* of an egroups list, and they never even sent me an e-mail telling me how to transition to the new system. So my mailing list is essentially held hostage until I fill out Yahoo's bullshit form. The deal is that Yahoo bought egroups and instead of letting the egroups interface stand (which was brilliant because they only needed your f***ing e-mail address, not your freakin' pet's name) they're forcing everyone to get one of their precious IDs. Flaky flaky flaky. Sorry for the grumpiness--worked the night through, David.
