Try setting your group membership to 'Daily Digest' and get one or two (long) emails a day containing several messages each. Or 'Special notices' which will mean you only get 'Admin' messages from the moderators.
Why not adjust how often you get your emails from us?  Go to your 'Settings' (click the option in the menu on the site, top right) and choose whether to receive emails for items immediately, or every hour, 2hrs, 4hrs or 8hrs, every day or never. You can also elect whether to receive events and volunteering emails or newsletters or specific notifications of items of interest.


You can edit your membership by clicking on the "edit membership" link near the top left of the page, just above the thick bar with the group name in it.
You can change any of these settings as often as you like.
 
The edit membership link is very small and usually pale blue, so you might need to hunt for it a bit.  The email selector is "Step 2. Message Delivery"  on the edit membership page.  If you prefer to change your settings by email. Please do not choose 'No Email' as we may need to contact everyone about major changes etc..
 
There will probably be a few days delay in any changes you make which is Yahoo catching up, please don't keep altering your membership too often as the delay could last longer.
