Hi, Roy!
I just did, but it was from "Ed". I took a peek at the Grouply sign-up page, and when I got to the part where it had a check box that said, "Use your Yahoo ID as a Grouply ID", I deleted th' sucker.
Sounds suspiciously like a phishing expetition, as Christopher Robin might have said.
Your Suspicious Combo Pal,
Dave Garfield

We share the vintagesynthrepair group. I want to add you as a friend in
Grouply so you can see my profile with my pictures, my groups, and my
favorite group messages.
Here is the link:

Grouply, 495 Seaport Court, Suite 103, Redwood City, CA 94063. This
message was sent to you by a fellow group member who uses Grouply
instead of email to access your shared group.

If one of these were to show up in _my_ group the member who was idiotic
enough to hand their yahoo password over to this outfit to spam folks with
would be immediately banned, for starters...
