Thanks, John, and everyone else who has replied.  It looks like some
nice QRQ ragchews may come out of this.

That's how you subscribe to groups on yahoogroups. Listname then dash
then 
subscribe then @yahoogroups.com

I can say, for the last few months I was with the thieves at comcast,
they 
blocked all yahoogroups confirmation messages when I joined or left a
group 
so anyone with comcast or some other ISP's, I had the same issue with
some 
listservs when I went to verizon too though I don't think yahoogroups
was 1 
of them, so that might be why it doesn't work for you. I own and
moderate 
many lists over there though and the way you tried to subscribe is the 
correct way.
