  This link describes Yahoo's limitations and options when sending to a LARGE group so be careful how many you place in each category. http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?y=PROD&page=content&id=SLN3383&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&searchid=1372539462721&locale=en_US&y= Maximum number of Contacts allowed http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?y=PROD&page=content&id=SLN5937&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&searchid=1389008506525&locale=en_US&y= This link provides information about maximum emails and addresses using SMTP https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN17672.html?impressions=true +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...

ADD A NEW CATEGORY If you want to create a NEW category click on CONTACTS. When the list is displayed click on ASSIGN TO LISTS. Place a check mark in the box next to the box containing NEW LIST.. This will high light the box...label the new category then click on DONE.

If some of the directions above do not work it may be because Yahoo is still working on this option to resolve many issues it is now having.
