Did Yahoo decide to make this happen without announcing it to their subscribers? I was expecting some fanfare in my Yahoo inbox about this, but was greeted by the same ordinary stuff. ??

i’m not turalia but i own and.or moderate several yahoo groups, as well as being a member of others and the last several days i’ve been seeing duplicate and even triplicate messages, as well as messages being repeated over two or three days after the original posting. i don’t know what’s causing it but somebody at yahoo needs to dedigitate and fix the problem.

Dear Turalia,

We had not heard about the Yahoo Groups issue; can you give us more information about it?

Amazing how you’re so quick to report yahoo’s storage change and you’ve ignored the bizarre glitch that filled many users e-mail boxes beyond their storage capacity in the last twenty four hours.

Yahoo groups went out of control and every message posted got delivered a dozen times or more. As a group owner, I even got inundated with repeat messages from folks joining groups.

Quick to report good news ignore bad news — makes the Net Patrol’s reliability as a reporter of what’s going on very suspect.

Technically, no, yahoo does not offer “unlimited” storage. It may not limit how much you store, but it does limit how you store it and you can not add folders beyond it’s arbitrary limit.
