Those who don't want attachments are getting them anyway.
Those who DO want to hear the sounds, cannot access them.
Those who don't want attachments and think they will go for the 'digest' as
a last resort, cannot then access their Yahoo group settings because they
originally signed up as 'email only' members.
Those who decide to try and sign up as a new web-based member when they are
already an 'email only' member, may then receive two sets of messages and
attachments, doubling the trouble.
Doug did send me the code line with which he originally signed me up. This
led me to the Yahoo web site which said "you are an email-only member, sign
up to become a web-based member". But to do that I seem to need to sign in
as a NEW member. I am very puzzled, have wasted a lot of time on this, and
still can't figure it out.
Do I need to first unsubscribe, then try to sign on as a new member?
Syd Curtis is waiting for me to try and figure it all out, so's I can then
help him through the mire.

I wholehearted endorse Barb's concerns. Most of us are unable to see just
what the attachment is, until we actually open the email, which does leave
us very vulnerable.
