Yahoo! Groups

Yahoo! Groups is an electronic mailing list service provided by Yahoo. Yahoo! has over the years bought many other mailing list providers, including the popular eGroups, and combined them into one system. Thus, Yahoo! Groups is now by far the most popular and well-known provider of electronic mailing list facilities.

As well as providing e-mail relaying and archiving facilities for the many lists it hosts, the Yahoo! Groups service provides additional functions, such as voting and calendar systems. This has helped persuade many large users to continue using the service, since these "value added" elements would be harder to provide on their own servers.
