Why can't I subscribe to Yahoo! Groups with certain email addresses?

Description
This article explains why some addresses are prohibited for use in Yahoo! Groups, even though you may be able to successfully add them to your Yahoo! account. Examples are email addresses with prefixes like, "info", "admin", "webmaster", etc.

Resolution
We prohibit two kinds of email addresses from subscribing to Yahoo! Groups:
  • "Role email addresses" with prefixes like "info", "admin", "webmaster", "sales", "support", etc.
  • "Group" or "List" email addresses like "yahoogroups.com", "googlegroups.com", "topica.com", etc.
Role addresses are prohibited because of the burden they place on Customer Care. At one time, these types of addresses were allowed, but they created enormous volumes of complaints to our Customer Care team. Two reasons why:
  • In many organizations, multiple people receive messages sent to these email addresses. So one person in the organization might choose to subscribe to a group using that address only to annoy everyone else on that distribution list who would suddenly start receiving email from a group they had never subscribed to.
  • To make matters worse, unsubscribing via email doesn't usually work for these addresses, since the user's email client uses their individual address in the "from" field, while the unsubscribe system requires that the request come from the email address that is actually subscribed to the group.
Group addresses, meanwhile, are banned for the same reasons, although there are additional concerns for these addresses around mailing loops and copyright issues.

Anthropologists classify them as Tibeto-Burman speaking member of the Mongoloid race. In the past they were little known by this racial nomenclature. They were known by the non-tribal plain peoples of Myanmar, Bangladesh and India as Chin, Kuki, or Lushai. Subsequently the British employed these terms to christen those 'wild hill tribes' living in the "un-admiral. They are Zomi not because they live in the highlands or hills, but are Zomi and call the...

CHIN, ZOMI, MIZO, ZO cihtawh kisai Debate

CHIN, ZOMI, MIZO, ZO cih minvai tawh kisai India gam aom ih mipihte kikupna, Debate bawlna hi. Sausimsim in alunglut velvelte bekin atawpdong simzo bekding hi. This is the outcome of the debate about our nomenclatures like Chin-Kuki-Mizo-Zomi on FaceBook – Zolengthe Group. The debate Vaphual shows that every one of us clearly know who we are – We are Zo, but some opined that Kuki nomenclature should be used as it is recognised nationaly and internationally. This is the starting point of the debate: Dear friends, MIZO=ZOMI, then is it something like both side of a coin? If it is so, then there is no chance of sitting under one administrative umbrella. Another Point: Mizo or Zomi ~ Which one should be the right word? I know You will say both. But according to Pu T. Gougin, Founder President of Zomi National Congress, “The land come first and then the people” therefore, it should be Zo… Mi….. that means Zo = Land and Mi = People.
