Many thanks for this, Andrew - very helpful indeed.  At first reading though I 
have one 
concern.  I subscribe to a number of yahoo groups and occasionally find it 
useful to go to 
http://groups.yahoo.co.uk to  make changes.   If I carried out the process 
described I would 
no longer be able to use my Yahoo ID and password to edit the groups, but could 
presumably 
then create a new ID and associate it with the groups etc.   Rather a nuisance 
but if it is the 
only way of getting rid of the spam apparently being sent from my yahoo address 
then it may 
be necessary.

the problem may have been there for a long time but it only became apparent 
when the 
spammer sent one or two of the messages to myself!


Thanks again for the information.
