It happened because YahooGroups apparently decided that all messages with "Precedence: bulk"[1] should just be dropped entirely. At a guess, this was a brain-dead attempt at spam prevention (because of course, all spam labels itself as such!). They did this without warning, as far as I'm aware. malgletu -Robin [1]: Possibly all messages with Precedence set at all; I didn't test that possibility, because I don't care enough. -- Me: http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** I'm a *male* Robin.
