Yahoo Groups has a "convert messages to HTML" option. One day, Yahoo Groups 
decided to turn this option on for me in all groups. Problem is, it messes up 
my mail reader somehow. I've since turned the option off, but there are often 
_hours_ of delays between a setting change and having the software actually 
act like the setting has been changed.
