Must new Yahoo group members have a Yahoo email account? Can't they use their own email address?

Question

I signed up years ago with a non-Yahoo email address. Now it appears that you have to use a 'ymail.com' or 'rocketmail.com' to register with Yahoo? Is this correct. If not, how do people with other email addresses register? Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

those without Yahoo accounts can join via subscribing through e-mail, they just wont have access to the groups web features
