* TIPS TO ORGANIZE ALL OF THE NEW EMAILS YOU ARE GETTING: *
***********************************************************
a) CREATE A SEPARATE EMAIL FOLDER & AUTOMATICALLY HAVE FREECYCLE STUFF
GO TO IT. Create a separate folder in your Outlook Express & have
Freecycle stuff sent to it automatically with a new rule under Tools |
Message Rules | Mail.
b) SET TO "Daily Digest" OR "Special Notices" (which means you'll just
browse the messages online). Realise that you can set your personal
preferences on the main page (under "Edit My Membership" in the
top-right corner).

IMPORTANT: THERE IS A TIME LAG FOR CHANGES: Whenever a user changes
settings, there is an overlap from the time it takes for Yahoo to
process the change until emails in the queue waiting to go out to the
users are delivered. In other words, in the six hours it takes for Yahoo
to permanently stop the emails from coming, there are emails already
set up to go out, and they will continue to go out until the queue is
emptied. (Some people have reported this taking up to three days.) So
please don't email the moderators with comments like "I changed my
settings/ unsubscribed yesterday. Why am I still getting emails?" Just
be patient, and all should be well. Don't make more than one change at a
time (each additional change adds on another day of waiting).
If you encounter further problems, you might want to consult the Yahoo!
