(Although >you can't really call it spam, since Yahoo is free to add any >conditions to their free services as they see fit.) I made the mistake of signing up for a Yahoo Groups mailing list that is peopled primarily by members and relatives of my wife's family for swapping genealogical information -- that's how I got involved. FWIW I never did get any notification from Yahoo. >A Yahoo address in the long headers doesn't necessarily prove Yahoo's >involvement, since headers are easily forged. If you like, you could >post some of these headers to the list and we could determine if Yahoo >had a hand in them. I've already reported them to BellSouth's Abuse address, and deleted them. In the last two days the amount of spam has declined. -- Selah!
