I am on a regional list run on Yahoo groups.  It is becoming more and more
difficult to deal with.  They hide the identity of the original poster.    No
sign of their original email address.  That makes it impossible to reply
directly to them instead of the list.  And just recently with a mail client
update, the originator of the message isn’t even displayed in the message list.
Every one of my inbox messages from the group now says that it is from:

—listname---<—listname--@y...>

I have to open the mail just to see who it is from - and that only works if the
poster bothered to put their name in the message.

The originator email is buried in the massive list of hidden headers using some
tag name, but my mail client doesn’t look for it.  My client is the latest
version of Mac Mail, so should be pretty up to date.

Our group puts some (not all) of the attached photos on a Yahoo server somewhere
where one has to open them from links in the mail.  But occasionally a photo
shows up in the actual mail.  No idea what/who decides which way to go.  Maybe a
yahoo group setting somewhere.

Not a fan of Yahoo
