I currently have no problems with Yahoo Groups and Lynx. However, versions of Lynx prior to 2.8.4 needed a COOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS setting in order to avoid being prompted, or to work at all when using -dump or -source. I did have to hack the Lynx source in order to be able to download Yahoo Groups messages non-interactively with -source. This is the subject of a message I sent to lynx-dev last month shortly before I joined. The docs for the list say that non-member submissions will be forwarded to the list if they are relevant, but I don't think it's turned up, so if no one minds I'll repeat it. imc ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
