nOT ONLY IS IT SPAM BUT 70% PORN SPAM. I've been forwarding it to
Abuse@yahoo.com for the last few days. I'll let you know if it does any good.

Sorry about the slightly off-topic post, but I wanted to reply to concerns
about participation in Yahoo groups resulting in SPAM in one's mailbox.
I currently belong to 14 Yahoo groups, but only have traffic from 2 of
them coming into my mailbox. When Yahoo activated their "Marketing
Preferences" profile a year or so ago, I was alerted to their default
profile setting that allowed Yahoo send a wide variety of email to my
address, so I made sure my profile denied all 13 of those options.
Like most of you, however, I was still getting 20-50 SPAM messages a day,
and it seemed to be getting worse.
On Saturday, I disabled my ARRL email address on the ARRL member web
site. Within hours, SPAM ceased and I have received NO additional SPAM
since then.
If you've got an ARRL "email alias", there might be merit in shutting it off.
73 to all
