I got an email from "grouply" that was somebody that I shared this group with.  
That email has been forwarded to my spam-not-caught address,  so hopefully I 
won't be seeing any more of them.

This whole business is totally absurd -- you sign into that site and YOU GIVE 
THEM YOUR YAHOO PASSWORD????!!!!  Idiocy.

I know that anybody that pulls this stuff in any of the groups I own or 
moderate will be immediately banned,  for whatever that's worth.

Come to think of it,  I may just set up a filter here that looks for the 
word "grouply" and moves the message to the trash folder!

What a load of crap...
