This is done to prevent people from harvesting e-mail addresses
using a web spider. If you read the group by e-mail, as I do, the
addresses are sent unmodified. The text ads in e-mails are
also much less intrusive than the interstitials that Yahoo! inserts
on their site.
It's also possible to reply to group messages by e-mail
(quizbowl_at_yahoogroups.com) although you need to verify your address
with Yahoo! first.
