The section for Yahoo mailing lists -- better known as Yahoo groups -- can probably be deleted. Yahoo itself became financially non-viable and was sold to Verizon 2 or 3 years ago (for far more than it was worth) and Verizon has since downgraded Yahoo groups to near non-functionality. They are now difficult to run and difficult for new members to join, and have only about 5% of their former features that once made them attractive, central to which was the online archive.

Yahoo was increasingly unable in the era of more advanced Social Media to find ways to make these groups pay for themselves, so F**book groups, G**gle groups, Groups.io and other sites have replaced them as worthwhile online gathering places for interest groups. -- doofus-9 18:33, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
