Fw: Important Yahoo! Groups Service Changes

Post by dealadayray »

To all members, if you want to back up the list of e-mail we have been
sending back and forth for the past couple of years, do so now, I received
the following notice, I guess the number of pictures you all have been
sending has overwhelmed them. So if your going to do it start now. After
7 August it will be a bit late.

Too late Bill,
I have been deleting the attachments off the list as they came in. I
did it because of the space they eat up as we only get a certain
amoung of megs for messages. When there is a gap in sequence of
messages it is either because of photos or because one guy would
offer something for sale, then another member would use the group to
reply to the seller rather than direct reply. Yahoo is only deleting
photos in the messages, the messages should still remain in the
system.
