To answer your last question , first. There are two Robs on this list. You
(in WA, Ithought) and Rob in VA. I knew from the email address that you are
the Rob on farmer's lists. There is only one Don. By the way, I had
forggotten to paste the message. It is from "cordwood "guy", at grouply ?
(I don't know what grouply is) When you clicked to his grouply site is when
you are asked for your yahoo name and password. Thanks Rob, unless I hear
otherwise, I will not respond to his invitation ...bobford

No. I can't think it's ever safe to give out a password.
There was a batch of some group or whatever looking to 'manage' your
yahoo groups for you, this was a couple of weeks back. I guess when
someone did it the program took the password and sent invites to
anyone it could. I didn't see it on any of farmers lists but it was
on a couple of others
What has this got to do with WA?
