Re: Restoring a Deleted Group


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

This was a Yahoo Group, when I pushed delete it asked if I was sure. When I pushed delete again, it told me that I had 15 days to restore the group before it was gone. Is this not the right group for questions about the old Yahoo Groups?

?

This whole group debacle was a disaster. I had almost 52,000 members on my list and then was given, by Yahoo, roughly 2 months¡¯ notice that they were changing the way the Groups worked. I scrambled to get my people added to the Google Groups, but could add only 100 a day, with no way to do a bulk import.

?

Then after December 14th, all of a sudden the email groups that I seriously depended on stopped offering images and the links didn¡¯t work.

?

Yesterday morning, in an email telling my subscribers that they needed to sign up for the Google Groups if they wanted to keep getting our emails, Yahoo started bouncing all of the messages all over the place. For example, if one person replied and told me they wanted to unsubscribe all of a sudden everyone got that message, not just me, which intensified causing lots more people to want to unsubscribe, which tossed even more messages to everyone on the list. It was if everyone did a ¡°reply all¡±.

?

The only way to stop this was to shut the list down, which brings me to my current dilemma. I was told in the ¡°delete groups¡± page that I had 15 days to restore any groups that I deleted but I now can¡¯t find where to do that.

?

There is only one that I want to restore, but my groups aren¡¯t even listed on the ¡°My Groups¡± page anymore.

?

Any help is appreciated, all I need to do is to restore 1 of the groups.

This only applies to a Yahoo group, and maybe not even then.

The delete dialog in groups.io clearly states that the action cannot be undone.
