What I did for the short while at changeover was to Auto-Forward the YGroup emails to me,? to
my new Groups.io group.
When the move was complete I put all messages at YGroup on Moderation.? I still get a
message now and then, usually from people who haven't changed their addressbook.
OK, Tony

Subject : [GMF] How to xfer yahoo msgs emaile
Starting Oct 28, yahoogroups won't save any new content.
That means that new files cannot be uploaded, and no new messages archived.
We have created a new io group, and will soon pay upgrade to premium.
Our plan was to take a week or two, to set up the new empty io group with our custom notices,
our own faq, etc. ... and then initiate the procedures for "easy transfer".
I understand that there is high demand, so we might have to wait our turn for the transfer. Totally
understandable.
But what happens to any new messages from our members sent to our list after Oct 28th? I
understand they won't be archived inside our yahoogroups site. So how could they be
transferred to groups.io?
The bottom line is ... for any transfers that happen between Oct 29 and Dec 1st, what happens
to any new emails sent to the yahoogroups list during that time before the transfer is finalized?
How can these new emails be transferred if they are not added into our yahoogroups message
archive?
Would we need to just save them in our regular email inbox, and then find a way to download
them into some sort of archive file (I have no idea how)? and then post that into the groups.io?
Hoping there is a simple way to do this.
