Normally, preferences such as those kind would be saved in the cookie but I just fooled around in the group under a couple of different Yahoo ID's and they all went into the group with the same view's and even after I changed things around to simplify or expanded, etc., when I went back they were back to the default.
I never really work much on the groups message pages or anywhere else on the groups pages except for the groups that I own or moderate where I'll occasionally check on pending members or bouncing members. I pretty much do everything else via email where I set my own preferences to plain text and either individual or daily digest type preferences and those have stayed consistent so it must just be something yahoo is doing with the pages as a default... maybe for faster loading and less server work. It seems that a lot of websites are going to a new type of coding/formatting to save server time. At least Yahoo isn't logging us out every five minutes. I have two websites I deal with a lot for business and they time-out after five minutes so I'm constantly having to re-login after I answer a phone call or email. Now, that's a PITA!
