As a result of my thread here, I am getting an almost endless stream of spam messages, supposedly from microsoft. Unless I clean out "bulk" and "trash" every few hours, they are pushing me beyond my Yahoo allowance. The effect is to cut me off from sending and receiving messages. Is this happening to everybody or have I been singled out because I have posted so many message in the last day or so? If the former, at what will it have to conceded that the spammers havemade this user organization useless?
You are not being singled out. Neither has this rendered the list useless. Check the list archives for various solutions to the problem: -deleting spam at the server -downloading and filtering -checking specifically for the signature of Swen (which seems to be the biggest culprit lately) Of course, you will need to activate the POP feature on your Yahoo! account first and setup a MTA/MUA on your machine.
