OK, I've just been to the web page to delete the long-subject-line message and discovered that the angle bracket method does not work when you view mail through the Yahoo web interface. It works perfectly, however, if you download group mail into your emailer and read it offline (as I do). So the problem with long links remains for those who choose to read the list at the Yahoo website itself - I have no idea how to deal with this one... Maybe try unchecking "Wrap message text"? Incidentally, I tried posting this message from the website itself, but I just got an endless "Contacting launch.yahoo" message...I think my ISP has virus problems right now. Kind regards.
