Subject: Fwd: Pending changes at Yahoo


Forwarded from another yahoo groups list I am on
 
There are changes scheduled to take effect over the next 60 days
at Yahoo.  These changes will effect all yahoo subcribers who have
a Yahoo ID and *may* effect list subscribers who were migrated
from other services such as eGroups or ONElist but who did not
create Yahoo IDs.

These changes will automatically opt-in all Yahoo members to
mailing -- both email and US mail -- and possibly phone solicitation
services unless you manually opt-out through the Yahoo website.

Details are expected to be sent out by Yahoo in email over the
next few weeks prior to the changes fully taking effect.  Basic
instructions to check your Yahoo account profile are provided
below.
 
To check your Yahoo account profile,  visit

     
http://groups.yahoo.com/

Click on "Account Info" (upper right corner),

Click on "Edit your marketing preferences" (half way down the page
under Member Information),

Select "No" for each marketing service you do not wish to receive,

Press the "Save Changes" button (either upper or lower right
corners).

 
I checked this on my yahoo Id and found to my horror that all the spam was set to on,  I really hate marketing sent to my email so I changed it immediately.  I suggest everyone check theirs too.
