'Expect bunches of spam and trash mail in your real mailbox too. Yahoo
apparently has just started this new thing for its members where they
are selling our address information.
-Go to the my groups page below, and
http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups
Then click on
-Account Information at the top right. Halfway down that page is a
link called
-Edit my Marketing Preferences which is a
euphemism for 'give away my addresses to everyone and their dog'.
Click on that and you can see our friends at Yahoo have pre-chosen
a "Yes" response in EACH case to sell your data. Sleazeballs!
Just uncheck Yes for each preference to save yourselves a lot of spam.'
