Hello everyone
I have a Yahoogroups mailing list that I want to migrate to Groups.io, and it's got about 1200 old mails that I would like to migrate as well. However, it's a small group (about 20 members) and I'm not eager to spend another $110 for the message migration (I'm already spending $110 for a different group).
What are your opinions about "migrating" the old messages by simply forwarding them all to the Groups.io list before you allow any new members to join (or: after first setting everyone to nomail)?
I realise that some of the threading information will be lost, etc., but at least users will be able to search the content of all old messages.
Do you know if Groups.io has some flooding protection which may interfere with such an operation?
(The ideal would be if I could simply import an MBOX file, but I can see how that may expose Groups.io to potential abuse.)
Thanks
Samuel
