Question

Do you have to have a Yahoo! account to join a group?

Answer 1

no, people can just join the mail list serv part-

"Join the mailing list only:

Yahoo! Groups recommends that you join a group via the group’s page (above). But if you want, you can simply sign up for the mailing list for the group. When you’re only on the mailing list, you don’t get access to all the group's web features (Photos, Files, Links, Polls, Calendar.)

To subscribe to a group's mailing list via email, send a blank email to:

[e-mail]

Make sure to replace "groupname" with the actual name of the group (e.g., [e-mail]).

When you get the confirmation message, just reply to it…and your subscription will be complete!"
