Yahoo is at it again; I can view this and other messages sequentially when in Messages mode but, when I change to Topics mode, I get a list of topics from 2010.

9300	2013-10-30 20:56:47	John Marshall	Re: Test Message
Kerry, I was seeing the same thing. If you look to the right of the Topics/Messages/Trending tab buttons you'll see the View drop-down. Click on that and pick Message History. That brings up a pop-up window showing a calendar of the message totals for each month, just like we used to see on the EMRFD main page. Click the Oct 2013 box and you're back in business. Click View again to choose how you want the messages sorted. Of course I can't explain how our views got set to 2010 or how we didn't know what the View menu was for, but I'm glad I located the message calendar. I know some people complained that it was missing in NEO but it seems it was just cleverly hidden. John, KU4AF Pittsboro, NC

Thanks John. That works but it doesn't "stick"; when I connect to the Group using my Favourites it shows the 2010 messages again and I have to go through the process you described yet again. I tried circumventing this NEO nonsense with a Firefox plug-in but that no longer works; I suppose the Yahoo people have got around that. I also tried getting individual e-mails but I don't like my Inbox cluttered-up; I am a member of about half-a-dozen groups.. Why, oh why, couldn't they leave the confounded thing alone?

You're right Kerry, it doesn't stick for me either, and it reverts back to Messages mode rather than Topics. One strange aspect of this problem is that so far, I only see it in EMRFD.
