That thing with bouncing messages happened to me once already a looooooong time ago (I guess it was 8 years ago) and unsubscribing and resubscribing again fixed the problem; since then no problems and I'm still in a couple of Yahoogroups and it works fine. Martina

One time I was on several yahoo groups and one of the lists emails bounced so I didn't get any emails from that particular group. I forget what group it was now but I think I ended up leaving that group. I'm on a couple of groups and so-far haven't had a problem getting emails from them.
