For HP Alumni News issues, the Discussion Forums, and the Email Lists, we use Yahoo's "Groups" system.
For the Networking Groups, we use LinkedIn's "Groups" system. Click here to change.
Each Yahoo group (Alumni News, Discussion Forums, Email Lists) has a separate subscription list.
For each Yahoo group, you can choose:
-
Individual Emails – receive each message individually as it is posted. (Default)
-
Daily Digest – receive a single email with the previous day's messages.
-
No Emails – read the messages with your browser at your convenience. (Requires that you get a free YahooID)
You must use the same email address for all of your HPAA subscriptions.
If you have a YahooID, click "Edit My Groups" to see your Yahoo Groups memberships on one screen
If you do not have a YahooID, use the table below to change your email preferences:
Step 1. Copy-and-paste the address into the "To" list of a new email and send a blank email. Message content does not matter – no one sees it.
Step 2. You will receive an email from Yahoo Groups asking you to confirm the request.
Allow 48 hours for all Yahoo Groups systems to complete your change.
