How To Change Your Yahoo! Settings for Strawberry Creek's email Newsgroup

If you would like to find out how to join the Yahoo! Group, click here.

  1. Go to the SCFM Yahoo! groups site and log in
  2. At the top of the page, underneath the banner ad, is a line that has your profile name, your email address, your status in the group, and a link to "Edit Membership."
  3. Click on the link

What are the options in Yahoo! settings?

  • Choose a profile from your Yahoo profiles to be your profile for this group
    • This is your identity on the SCFM Yahoo site
    • It shows up as the sender in emails you send out to the Yahoo group
  • Change your email address
    • You can enter multiple email addresses into Yahoo!
    • You can select which email address of the ones you've entered will receive SCFM emails
    • If you enter a new email address using this tool, it will send you a confirmation email
      • You must read the email and follow the instructions in it to actually have the new email address show up in Yahoo!
  • Change how many emails you receive
    • You can choose to receive every email sent to the group
    • You can choose to receive one digest email every day that includes all of the emails sent that day
  • Change the format of the emails you receive
    • This is defaulted to "Fully Featured"
      • Emails include lots of information about what's happening on the Yahoo! group website
      • All features may not be supported by your email client
    • The other option is Traditional
      • If other things have changed on the website, you won't know
      • The email will display more readily
      • If emails are coming to you from the Yahoo! group that tell you to take yoga instead of relating to the subject line, you might want to switch to Traditional format
  • You can also leave the group from here

Be sure to click "Save Changes" when you're done.
