that how it works?  everyone emails everyone?

Welcome to the club Ffion (and any other new members).

If you are receiving dozens of e-mails every day that means you chose to
leave the default setting of "Individual E-mails" when you joined the club.
Every time someone posts a message to the HPforGrownUps list, everyone with
that option selected receives it as an individual e-mail.

There are two other options:

- Daily Digest (which bundles together groups of c. 25 messages into a
single e-mail, so you get 3 or 4 big e-mails instead of 75-100 smaller
ones).

- No Mail/Web Only (you won't be sent any e-mails and you must visit the
eGroups clubs online to view messages posted to the list).

You can change your settings by viewing your membership details, here:-

...and changing the option from the pull-down box on the right.
