Recently it has become possible to post a message to a Yahoo Groups list, and the message not arriving, and you never noticing. There is no bounce message or warning.
It can happen if the email address you are posting from is not the same one as the one Yahoo Groups has listed as your *main* address.
It used to be you could post from any address you have listed in your profile. But now apparently not, and you don't get a warning. Pretty unfortunate, many messages may be lost without anybody noticing.
Update: I got an actual answer from Yahoo Groups support! Not bad for a free service. It turns out there are "alternate email addresses" and "alternate posting email addresses". The latter you find under "options" for each address you have listed.
