HOW TO "CURE" A BOUNCING Yahoo! ACCOUNT:

Yahoo! groups moderators used to be able to click the "Re-Activate" button and be able to un-bounce a subscriber's bouncing email account. This is NO LONGER THE CASE.

Luckily, Yahoo! gives each subscriber a way to un-bounce their own accounts these days. Usually, accounts bounce when subscribers are not able to attend to their emails in a timely manner; (people travel without freezing their email streams from forums they belong to). Consequently their e-mailbox fill up and bouncing happens.

TO CORRECT THIS situation, follow the steps below:

1. Visit your My Groups page.
2. Look for a bounce alert near the top of the page.
3. Click Go to My Email Preferences.
4. Click Unbounce next to the bouncing email address.
5. This immediately sends an email to your mailbox. If it’s no longer bouncing, you’ll receive that email. Click on the link in the email.

Note: Reactivating your account will NOT immediately restore email delivery. The change in your status still needs to be propagated to all your groups. Usually, this happens within hours, but there may be occasions (particularly if you’re in a group with more than 75 members) when it may take a day or more.
