Yeah, it's just an easy tool and it's still there. I've actually *never*
had problems with this.  I think it's overblown, and may just be related
to yahoo email accounts... you can STILL join a yahoo group from any email
address without giving yahoo ANY of your info (except that email address.)

They did recently start some sort of anti-spam email filter on groups
thing which is screwing things up right now, but I figure they'll fix it
soon enough.
