When you subscribed via the website, did you make sure your yahoo profile
was selected? You can select no profile and I know more and more list
moderators are making sure you have a profile now because the spammers
usually have no profile. When you deny someone,last time I did it for one of
my lists, I don't think there's any way to put a reason unless you want to
email the person direct which with a spammer you don't want to do so you're
better off not. All Yahoogroups gives you is a combo box with the options
"do nothing, approve, deny" that's all you have for options.
