I prefer the traditional mode of receiving e-mails from my various Yahoo
Groups.  All that extra "garbage" they add on does nothing for me, other
than grate on my nerves...  ;-)

I just wish there was a way to KEEP my settings after an e-mail address
bounce occurs.  Seems that I get them every so often, and with having
subscriptions to over 40 groups, it's a real PITA to go in and reset each
one after "un-bouncing" my address.

Recently I did some research on the membership statistics for this group.

Here's some interesting info:

We have 3,393 members.

556 are in "Daily Digest" mode.

883 are in "Individual Emails" mode

275 are in "Special Notices" mode - i.e. they read the mail via the 
YahooGroups web site, and if the owner or moderators send out a 
special notice they will get it in their normal email (note that this 
feature is almost never used here, in fact I can't remember the last 
time it was used).

1,679 are on "No Email" - i.e. they read the mail via the YahooGroups 
web site and they have locked themselves out of special notices.

That last tidbit is very surprising to me.  I would have thought that 
maybe 1/10 that many would go to the hassle of reading the mail 
through a web browser.

1694 are in "Fully Featured" mode, the rest are either in "Default" 
or "Traditional" mode.  The "Default" mode ones haven't made a choice 
yet.  Yahoo may make one for them at some point.

The above is from a quick look at the Excel spreadsheet.
I'm not a guru in Excel number crunching, and I didn't have a reason 
to go poking around any further.
