What has happened to Yahoo groups?!

Help- anyone!

I like the p15-d24 forum, but also have had membership in about two dozen Yahoo groups.  Suddenly I see "ATT" when I try to call up the Yahoo groups site.  My list of groups I belong to is not available to me.  Any help in regaining my access to the Yahoo groups would be greatly appreciated.

I was 'playing' with a couple of groups yesterday so it is not a system wide thing.  I say 'playing' because I have yet to figure out how the Yahoo group thing is supposed to work...drives me crazy and cause me to not even bother joining in discussions....

 

You might do a browser search for 'yahoo groups' and go in from a different angle. IDK if it will work, just guessing.

I was just in one of mine and it was fine. Maybe you got signed out. Try signing back in.

Yahoo groups still exist.  The login screen I get when I type in "groups dot yahoo dot com" shows the letters ATT before the word Yahoo. I was suspicious of this, i did not want to log in to ATT which I know little about.  However, I tried logging in using my existing Yahoo user name and password.  It worked, and seems to be the same Yahoo groups I was accustomed to.  HOWEVER, I did discover later that my Yahoo email has downloaded several (or all) my email accounts' messages in one huge glob.  236 messages, shown as unread.  I rarely use my Yahoo email, now it is a conglomeration of all my emails together.  I did not ask for this!!!!!  The Yahoo email is now apparently called ATT_Yahoo email or similar.

AT&T has been linked to (possibly owns) Yahoo for some time. My sbcglobal email (part of the AT&T group) that I've had for nearly 20 years has always been linked to Yahoo mail.
