What does the bounce information on the Bouncing Members page mean?

These members' mail accounts have been deactivated because they consistently reject email sent from Yahoo! Groups. Next to each bouncing address, you’ll find:

  1. Bounce Status: Hard or soft bounce or date of status change.
  2. Probes: Yahoo! Groups automatically tests bouncing accounts by sending "probes" (test emails). If these messages are not returned to us with an error, then the member account is automatically reactivated. This area lists the number of probes that have been sent to the member's account.
  3. Joined: The date the member joined the group.
  4. Edit: The Edit button links to the member's preferences page, which displays the member's information, privileges, status, and bounce history.
  5. Remove: Check the Remove boxes for the members that you would like to remove from the group and click Save Changes.
