Droxine,
At the end of the Easy Group Transfer process, you should receive a summary email that includes a list of items that were not able to be transferred. Did it say anything about how many messages could not be transferred?
There was another report recently that had a substantial discrepancy between messages on the Yahoo group and messages that were seen on GIO. That turned out to be an error in reading the number of messages on GIO. The user was looking? at the number of Topics instead of the number of messages.
When I transferred a group a while back, I also noticed a discrepancy in the number of messages, but there was no indication of missing messages in the summary email. I went back and started comparing the Yahoo and GIO messages to see what had happened. It didn't take me long to realize that there were quite a few messages that had been deleted over time and that the highest message number on Yahoo was not a representative count of the actual total number of messages.
It may be worth your time to take a couple months and do an actual comparison to see if there really are missing messages, or if the "deleted" messages likely make up the discrepancy in numbering.
