Hello, Got this from another Yahoo group, looks like they are trying to improve things but as most Humans do, they messed up! This is probably not the problem Paul was referring to, just interesting information.
Paul >From February 28 about 2:30 p.m. (Pacific time) until March 1 about 11:15 a.m. (Pacific time) (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/), some members of some groups were not receiving email. Some members of some of these groups were able to see the posts on their group archive on the Web, but were not receiving them via email. Groups mail delivery is back to normal as of about 11:15 a.m. (Pacific time). We now have more information about what caused this. While we were working on an improvement to our email delivery systems, email delivery was inadvertently suspended for some members of some groups. This problem did not affect all Groups users. Unfortunately, while messages posted to affected groups during this time were saved to group archives, the messages cannot now be delivered via email. If your group's archives are open to your members (more info about Archive settings: http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/groups/messages/messages-16.html), your members can access the undelivered messages via the Web. If your group's archives are not open to your members, you may want to suggest that your members resend any messages they had sent between yesterday afternoon and this morning, if they want to ensure that all members of the group receive them. Yesterday's work was part of our ongoing efforts to improve the performance of Yahoo! Groups and was not supposed to involve any downtime for users. The delivery glitch was the result of human error, and because it only affected some members of some groups, it delayed both our awareness of the problem and our efforts to resolve it. We sincerely regret the inconvenience it may have caused. The Yahoo!

When the moderators deem it okay, they will take you off of the necessity of being moderated. 2, The YahooGroups servers are getting slower and slower. This is due to one reason, the processing unnecessary SPAM. It's too bad that people have to generate spam of any type and the mail servers abound have to deal with it. There is more processor power being utilized to filter spam than it takes to run these lists and web servers. So, actually the delay is caused by one thing, SPAM, but two resulting factors affect you. Kevin Custer List Owner Yahoo! Groups Links Its the talk of the town.
