As far as I know, the Yahoo!Groups version is purely read-only: useful as an archive or to read individual messages, but you can't send to that address. Attempting to reply sent an email to the canonical address of the list (due to the Reply-To header, no doubt), which is not allowed unless the friend has joined the "real" CONLANG list: http://listserv.brown.edu/archives/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=conlang&A=1 Once he has done so, he should be able to post to the list.
