Messages to a private yahoogroup I set up two weeks ago regularly arrive 
with brightly coloured (roughly) 300 x 200 pixel sponsored images appended. 
These appear between the message and any attachments.

While I fully understand the logic and commercial imperative behind these 
sponsored messages (I used egroups right from the start), I still find them 
intrusive all the same.
