Please get this out to any of your local lists that need to do this.  If
your listowner is on vacation or has already left for Pennsic s/he will not
find it out until all the info is lost.  If the listowner can not do this
before August 7th, listmembers could divide up the archives to search for
attachments and forward the attachments to themselves for safekeeping until
the attachments could be stored at a permanent location.  (Be sure to check
that each attachment has forwarded correctly, so it can be done again if
not.)

Here is the info from yahoo:
- Message Attachments: Yahoo! Groups will continue to deliver all
attachments sent via email, however, the attachments will no longer be
archived within the Messages area. You may continue to upload files
and images to the Files and Photos areas of your groups.  Please
re-upload any attachments you would like to preserve to the Photos or
Files areas of your group. On Aug. 7, all attachments in the Messages
area will be removed, and Yahoo! will be unable to retrieve such data.
