I've used an unmunged address for Yahoo groups for a number of years and haven't had spam
from that source. About the only commercial noticies I get there are from companies with
which I've intentionally listed for product updates.

I've got my Yahoo membership set for no sharing.

Perhaps it's not Yahoo, but some subscribers on specific groups that cause the problem.
