Hi Brian,

Only a guess but could it be that you are attempting to view a HTML email
which contains images!  This would cause the modem to dial out to the
Internet in order to display the image.  I suggest you set your
yahoo!Groups
profile to not convert emails to HTML.  It's a preferences option per
yahoo!Group.

I might be completely wrong but this is what solved the problem when I was
having similar issues.

Cheers,

M
