They can send and receive emails from the list without a Yahoo! account. They won't be able to participate in polls, or any of the other stuff associated with groups.

They can become email only members. To join, they would send an email addressed: XXX-subscribe @ yahoogroups.com (close spaces) Substitute the exact name of the group for the XXX.
