Yahoo is usually fine I've had no problems with it at all normally........ that's why it's so odd!
yeah that'll be why - if you are a google member you get it automatically (that was how they kicked it off), the best way to avoid getting swamped is to set up a hotmail use that to register for google then burn the hotmail address. Saying that i've not had a problem since joining google so it might be the groups rather than the mail service which is the problem.
