[HPforGrownups] ADMIN: The Main List will be read-only for 45 hours from 23:59 BST June 20th

Can anyone tell me why I can't seem to get my account to go to No Email?  I set it for that on Tuesday, but am still getting a ton of posts.  I went back and checked to see what it said, but for some reason it now reads Special Notices.   I want no email until I get the book and read it about three times.  Can anyone please help, or tell me if Yahoo just isn't paying attention?

  Hello HPfGU Members! 
   
  It's an exciting time here on the List as we wait with bated breath  
  for the arrival of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix! While  
  we're all patiently (!) waiting for the Big Day, your Friendly  
  Administration Team has been running around making preparations for  
  the blessed event. 
   
  After many long talks with and input from many of you, we have 
  decided to close the Main List to posting for 45 hours from the 
  moment of first release, midnight Friday night (20th June) British 
  Summer Time. That's tomorrow, folks! This means that, while you'll 
  be able to read all the fantastic posts in the archives, you  will 
  not be able to post your own messages until the closing time has 
  passed. 
   
  The list will re-open to posting at 9pm on Sunday 22nd June, British 
  Summer Time. That's 4pm on the East Coast of North America, and 1 pm 
  on the Pacific Coast. This will allow everyone a chance to read and  
  reflect before posting about OoP and sharing messages with the usual 
  high standard of thoughts and opinions. 
   
   
  But fear not, friends! There are ways to share all your  
  observations, be they about Draco's robes or the Dursleys' breakfast 
  menu! OTC, otherwise known as Off-Topic Chatter, will not be  
  affected by the Main List closure, so you are free to post your  
  comments there. Just remember that not all readers of OTC will be in 
  the happy position of having a copy of OoP, so be sure to use the 
  proper spoiler prefix (OoP:) and avoid giving away details in your 
  headers. 

  If you're not already a member of OTC, go to  
  www.groups.yahoo.com/group/HPFGU-OTChatter and join the friendly  
  gang that hangs out there. Remember, OTC is one of our sister  
  lists, so the same rules of behaviour apply there as apply on the  
  Main List.

  Once the Main List is reopened to posting (hurray!) we suggest you 
  repost any particularly brilliant canon observations there. 
  Otherwise we could all go cross-eyed as we try to read canon 
  discussions on both lists 
   
  Thank you all for reading this, and Happy Harry Day to you on June  
  21st! 

  Have fun! You have 23 hours and 44 minutes to bring out that last, 
  amazing theory!
   
  The HPfGU Administration Team
