If anyone else bothered to look at the Yahoo Groups Blog they would have
read that they are moving the groups to a new data center which they
hope to have completed by the 30th. That's why there are posting
delays for those of us using email and maybe the web site which I don't
use. Since I have Yahoo mail they also sent out an email earlier in the
month to customers about the update of servers for Yahoo Mail.
