Re: Counting emails was Re: [GMF] In Process? AND vailidty of policy change


 

Yes there is an easy way to see how many messages are in your current Yahoo group.

Simply go to ther home page, scroll down to see the month by month, year by year total and add them all up.
This is the total number of messages CURRENTLY in your Yahoo group.

The message number is the number of messages that have ever been posted on your group, including all messages that have been removed by yahoo, so is not an accurate figure at all.

At the end of the day, it is the number of messages CURRENTLY in the archives that will be transferred.


one thought on this change of policy.
If we signed up to groups.io and started the migration process BEFORE these new conditions came into effect, surely it is not legal to 'back-date' any policy changes. Meaning. That anyone that signs up to groups.io or perhaps starts the migration process AFTER the policy changes, providing it is made very clear on the migration page of the chages, then of course, the new policies can come into effect.
But not before.

I am by no means against people paying for the hard work of Mark and his colleages, and whilst persoanlly I think the sum asked is a bit on the steep side, it is a one off payment only, so is a 'good' way of doing it. It is just the fact that I have transferred the group, got most of the active memebrs all across and used to the new site, to now only be told that we may have to pay for the transferral of all the data, does seem rather 'over the top' at best and at worst, well I will not use that word, but it is not a legally good word.


It would be curious to know what other people think about this please.

Cheers
Alexis

Also a new twist: the most recent 100,000 messages transfer free -

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to count the number of messages
a Y!G has?
Best,

Look at the last message number on the web UI.
