Allen,

Does this mean that they couldn't be added to an existing group that
already has messages?

Whether the destination group already has messages or not isn't the issue. The problem is that there's no mechanism available to users that can bulk import message content, or other content (other than the Yahoo Group transfer mechanism).

Presumably Groups.io support could do it, probably using tools created in the development of the Yahoo Transfer mechanism.

If so I would expect it to have the same effect: the bulk copied messages would get assigned message numbers as they are added to the group (possibly intermingling with normal posting to the group) but would retain their original posting date so that they sort in the Messages/Topics lists as if posted on those dates.

A different approach was used by a group migrating from Big Tent, but that mechanism would have the defect of giving the old posts new dates (and probably, a new poster).
