Hello,I want to subscribe to a couple of Yahoo groups, but the e-mails that I sent have got no response. So I logged on to the Yahoo groups website, found a link to one of the groups I am interested in and clicked on the "Join this Group" button. This took me to the page to sign up for a Yahoo ID.
Signing up for a Yahoo ID involves the dreaded captcha, but there is an alternative for blind/VI users, which is to send a Help message to Yahoo. I have done this, and the e-mail which I received in reply tells me to phone a number in the U.S.A.!
Has any of you without a Yahoo ID successfully subscribed to a Yahoo group by sending an e-mail request during the last six months? If yes, then I suspect that the problem is caused by my ISP Virgin Media, (formerly NTL). If I have to set up a Yahoo ID, is there an alternative to phoning the States?
I am already a member of two Yahoo groups and can send and receive e-mails to and from them. However, I cannot change settings by e-mail, such as going nomail. This started happening about six months ago. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks in advance for any help.
