This group site can be used to stay in touch with family members. This is a closed group and can only be accessed by family members. When you send an e-mail to bakersbythebay@yahoogroups.com, your message will be forwarded to all those who are on the members' list. (providing they have opted to receive mail from this site; you have three options regarding mail: receive each individual e-mail; receive a “daily digest”; receive no e-mail, will visit site).
You do not need a yahoo account to send and receive e-mail from Bakers By The Bay Yahoo Group. You only need an account to visit the actual site. Imagine this as the post office. You don’t need to go to the post office to send and receive e-mail.
One final note: if you respond to someone’s e-mail in the group, sending “reply” will forward the message to that party only-- sending “reply all” will send the response to the group list.
This is your group! I hope that it becomes useful.
