Yahoo Makes Improvements to Group Email

You may have noticed a bit of a change in the way you receive email from our Yahoo Group. Yahoo has made enhancements to the email format. See details below.

Get ready for a new look for your Yahoo! Groups email.
We've made your Daily Digest and Individual group emails easier to follow and more engaging than ever.

And this is just the beginning. Be sure to keep an eye out for more great additions to Yahoo! Groups.

Here are a few ways we're improving your Yahoo! Groups:
* Browse through your messages more easily, thanks to the new layout
* Get alerted anytime your group adds new photos, files and more
* Watch for more improvements to Yahoo! Groups based on user feedback

Have questions about the new Groups email? We've got answers.

Why did Yahoo! Groups change the look of my group email?
With the new email design, we've made Yahoo! Groups messages easier-to-read, friendlier and more informative by letting you know when information in your group has been updated.

I noticed that the group messages are now organized differently. Can you tell me more about this?
With message threading, customers can easily read thru messages around a specific subject. On the Web you can see all the messages associated with a single subject. In the Daily Digest, you can easily scan a group of messages and click on the subject line for instant access to the message contents.

Are there any other new changes to Yahoo! Groups?

Yes. We've also updated our search functionality. Now you can more easily search for, and find, specific content within your group's message archive.

I get overwhelmed by the number of individual email messages in some of my groups. Any solutions?
If your group is generating a lot of messages, you may want to get a summary of the daily messages in a single email. The new Daily Digest is a great way to keep up with what's happening in your group, particularly if you don't need to respond immediately to the messages. Sign up for the new Daily Digest.
