While doing research on Google, a hit took me to a post on a private Yahoo group. Since I was not a member of the group, I couldn't access it.

However, I went back to Google and clicked on the "Cached" link, and there it was, the whole post. I was taken aback because I believed that a private group was not indexed. But there I was reading the archived version of a post from a private Yahoo group.

So, posts that we send to our private groups 'may' be accessible at some point in the future. I wanted to alert everyone to this possibility before you send anything in a message that you wouldn't want known on the Net.
