Ive just received 3-4 messages from 1 person...
on a Yahoogroup..
& at the top - Gmail put the above warning on each of her mails.
Is this new ?
Ps - the "Warning" is in RED - with black text (rest of it) - & a
yellow background...

yeah, we've seen this before...it's just something google is
implimenting I guess when headers don't match up from who sent it or
something...pretty old news too.

No. Not new at all. The screenshot I've attached was taken in August
when I first found this out - the e-mail claimed to be from Google but
wasn't.

Not new, but it only seemed to happen to spam messages until
yesterday. Yesterday, I saw it at the top of a group message, just as
you did.

I've heard about this before but only got it yesterday myself.. I've
been getting topic notifications for a thread I'm following in another
forum and yesterday that yellow warning message started popping upin
those emails.
Is there anyway to get rid of it? Because it's disabled all the links
in the email.

yeh i have also observed the same thing...
whenever i post a msg from the yahoogroups website, the mail is
initiated from the yahoogroups website *pretending* to be sent by your
email address which is registered with the yahoo groups. So the
originating mail server of the mail in which we all see such a message
does not matches the mail server domain name of the mail's address.
Thats why our SMART gmail marks it with a warning.
that was a pretty nifty feature i think and makes a lot of sense to me...
if i was too confusing i will state an example...
my email address is a...@yahoo.com, and registered to x...@yahoogroups.com
i go to groups.yahoo.com and post a new message, the message will be
delivered to every1 as if it originated from a...@yahoo.com but will be
sent by the groups.yahoo.com mail sending server.... hence the gmail
catches it and displays the warning...
with regards,

I only noticed the error a day or so after I wrote it - Not when the
first few replies came :)
