Hi All
I too am having similar problems. and would appreciate any advice on how to
get around this. Email address or phone number for Yahoo groups in the United
Kingdom would be appreciated.

Subject: [access-uk] Yahoo list problem
Apologies if this is somewhat off topic, but it is a problem which I
understand to be affecting many subscribers to Yahoo groups in addition to
myself.
It appears that several ISPs are using the Black House list in their spam
filters and that it tends to bounce Yahoo mail with the result that the account
has to be re-activated at regular intervals. This means that one misses some
of the list messages and participation becomes very difficult.
I already changed ISPs once during the last twelve months to get away from
the problem, but my current ISP (Ukonline) is now using the Black House list as
are several others. They give me the choice of turning off spam filtering
completely (which I am reluctant to do) or living with the bouncing of Yahoo
mail.
I was originally going to ask for details of ISPs free from this "pest", but
it occurs to me that if I move yet again there is nothing to say that the new
ISP will not go the same way in due course.
I have been wondering whether I could use my free @yahoo.co.uk address for
all my Yahoo lists whilst retaining the same ISP. However I have a suspicion
that only Yahoo Mail Plus (the paid for version) allows POP access. Can anyone
confirm or deny this?
I thought that I might get the answer from Yahoo Customer Support in the uK,
but the phone number I have seems to be incorrect. If anyone has the up to
date one I would appreciate having it.
Many thanks,
Douglas
