Hi there, I like you, joined yahoo groups a while ago, so I didn't have to worry about the graphical word in signing up with yahoo. But now I guess they have put a place to enter a graphical word on the screen where you actually join an individual group. The group I was trying to join was blind-programming, and it was a public group. Like I said, I sent a blank EMail to subscribe, but not yet heard back from it. So, at the moment, if you can't join a group using a blank EMail, I am not sure what to do because Jaws is not reading the graphical word!!
