Usage Note  These are not mailing lists (although they have a similar format). To use an address or addresses from a list the browser's copy and paste facilities must be used to move the address(es) from the list into the To: or Cc: fields of the message being addressed. Lines beginning with comment characters are ignored by yahMAIL address processing so these may also be copied without concern.
