Attachments were not sent with digests on Yahoo. Are they on Groups?
Yes. Large attachments may be sent as links, but are still stored on the server.

We were one of the groups who summarily had all the attachments in our files deleted. That meant all the records from the formation of multi-million $ housing community were lost. I started reminding everyone to both use attachment but to paste the information into the message so it couldn¡¯t be separated and lost.
I find myself very disconcerted by your use of "summarily" in this context. The transfer instructions are quite clear that message attachments are not migrated. Also, they were in no sense "lost"...they were still right there, in your Yahoo group. You could have gone there and rescued them...or continued to use Yahoo, if it was that important.

Is there anything to be cautious of in attachments now?
Be aware that they take up part of your [1 GB?] storage allocation and -- depending on your settings -- old ones may get deleted when you exceed that allocation.

Hope this helps,
