[Fot] Is the system down?

I administer a (much smaller) mailing list, and just ran into this
problem recently.  Apparently Yahoo has decided to change
their security policy relating to mailing lists, such that the
"sender" can no longer actually be the person sending the
message to the list, the "sender" has to be the list itself.

This shouldn't be a huge issue, except that that there are
two main problems.  Everyone will need to sign their
e-mails (most email programs allow you to set up a
signature with your name and email address).  The
second problem is that "reply" will now end up being
the same as "reply all", so if you want to send a private
reply, you will have to get the address from the signature
line.

I hope that helps,
John
