How did we get this? When I opened it I had a co-worker sitting next to me -
it was embarrassing

Subject: [S] inappropriate content on S-news (and Yahoo groups)
Hi, S-news,
I reported the inappropriate messages we were getting from a Yahoo group
(the sexy little girl junk) to mail-abuse@yahoo-inc.com. (Maybe others did,
too?) Others may do the same by forwarding this or other offending e-mail
with full headers (see
http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/config/config-11.html for more info on
mail headers).
Yahoo also has an online form for reporting such abuses of Yahoo groups
http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/groups/groups-38.html.
Would strongly recommend you do not use the "unsubscribe" e-mail listed in
these junk messages - the senders of such junk use that to confirm that you
are a "live" e-mail account and to increase the volume of similar junk to
your e-mail account.
When other such junk shows up on the list or in your inbox - report it to
the domain it is coming from (like yahoo or aol) and they will shut down the
account that is sending it.
