Yahoo! Groups got MAD!
:
INTERNET
Who can I blame? Spammers? No, Yahoo! Groups.
Everyone is receiving duplicate/multiple copies of messages. If you belong to any Yahoo! Group, the most practical things you can do is to refrain from posting immediately, until we can get an all clear on this.
"We're aware of the duplicate message bug that has been affecting groups today and are working to resolve the issue (a side effect of this bug is that some messages are also being delayed). We have actually pushed two fixes already, but we are aware that some groups are still experiencing the problem and that more needs to be done to fully resolve the issue.
There is, however, one silver lining to this bug. It was the result of our latest system updates intended to improve email delivery speeds. So once the bugs are resolved, we should see a significant reduction in the time it takes to deliver messages to Yahoo! Groups members.
We will update this blog entry as soon as we have more definitive information on the status of this issue.
Thank you and our apologies for any inconvenience caused by the duplicate messages."
