Once you sign up, there is a way to opt out of all that marketing stuff.

Hi Eric,
That's strange, I use to subscribe to it via email, and currently subscribe
to MixW. The site does seem different ... must be the restriction to
members only. Can't even read the messages! Although I do have a Yahoo
mail account, I prefer not to use it for a list/group. I agree with you,
they would be better served by using another service.
... Kip
