The web page shows the number of messages in each monthly block for the last couple of years or so but I cannot open any monthly listing. It worked ok a while ago but not now ! If I insert my email address and password as requested, it will not recognise my password. If then I attempt to use the procedure for changing my password, I get a message ' the email address is already allocated' ! The last time I used this facility successfully I clicked the box to save my password . frustratin' ain't it ! George Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to the Yahoo! Terms of Service.
