Jon,
can we do something like face book where we get email notification of any events. Or just run a Facebook page for this discussion.
I haven't had any mail for ages either.

A few months ago our yahoo users stopped getting mail because of the insane and highly restrictive filtering that yahoo uses for its servers.  We countered that by removing the real email address of the person sending the message and replacing it with a generic address "personal_submersibles at psubs.org" but that appears to have triggered the latest "spam" filter and cut off outgoing email completely.

I know some of you are highly resistant to this but I'm not sure we have a choice anymore.  Spam filtering has become so specialized that it takes an inordinate amount of time to determine if the problem is with the server, the provider, or some spam filter on the internet.
