You have to invite the transfer agent to your Yahoo group, not your groups.io group.

Topic = Subject around which a discussion ensues and is set by the first message.

Discussion = the series of messages replying to the first or subsequent messages under that Topic.

Thread = a series of consecutive replies, e.g., A replies, B replies to A, C replies to B,... Threads can branch, e.g., D also replies to A, A to D, X to D,...

Discussions can be presented as threaded (indent for each reply) or flat ( unthreaded). Groups.io is flat. More explanation?.

I want to transfer a small (20 user) group from Yahoo to Groups.io. I attempted to send a group invitation to [email protected] and received an invalid address error. Are group transfer requests no longer being accepted?

?Haha.

I wanted to use "Threads" so many times, but deleted the word, not knowing what terminology is common to others here. So, I ended up with that lame sounding explanation instead.

Following up with a "removed" member might be a reasonable course of action on small lists.

Due to some erratic behavior by Yahoo Mail, *some* incoming mails are automatically but inappropriately dumped into users' SPAM folders, thus marking the messages as SPAM even when they are not, even when the user has not so marked them, and doesn't even know about this.

I got booted from a IO Group for marking messages as SPAM, though I'd never done so and it came as news to me.?

I don't think it's a bug with Yahoo Mail, it seems to be a feature.? If a user deletes an email message without reading it, Yahoo Mail concludes that it was SPAM and so marks some or all additional incoming messages from that source as SPAM.? Even if the source is Yahoo Groups.? At least with my account - and I am betting that's the case with many other Yahoo Mail accounts as well.?

Is a moderator able to set this for all members of the group so they can all see each other in the directory, or must each individual member make that setting in their Group Profile?

The second is a list of past members, including why they are no longer members.

This is only available on premium groups.

There are a couple of features that were introduced, then moved to premium groups.? Mark has said several times that he would never remove a feature once introduced, so some early groups are grandfathered in to features that are no longer included in a free group.? How many other services would offer that? ;>)

I've also noticed that when you are given results to a search, a Tools button appears with some additional options.

Thanks Gerald...I'll add a line to that effect to the wiki page.

Oh... where is it? I can find "banned" members but no sign of past members.

In Chrome, you can right-click on the page and select Save As...
In Edge, I didn't find a Save function - right-click, Select-All, open Notepad, paste, save as members.csv (or whatever name you like with .csv extension)

At that point, you Save Page (or whatever your browser calls it) and you're done.? Because I own several groups, I rename it to [groupname].csv before saving so I can keep a copy of each one.

The Google Groups invitation is a good model:

Perhaps this was questioned before, but searching for download member information, I can't find it.

When I try to download my list of members, a new page opens up on my Chrome browser ending with
"memberlist.csv"

But nothing downloads.

How do I save this as a csv file?

I think I understand. Since I usually use my e-mail (A ghost of Yahoo) to reply I can just Reply All and if the original
Sender does not get the reply, he will get it on the Group. The worst offender has been combative and refuses to do anything about his address. Perhaps there is no solution but he denies any problem. I put him on Moderate.
Thanks, Richard

Yes, they bot exist in W10 but, why not use an attachment instead of using

Arno,

I am not using txt. And I explained in this subject already, why we do not
want attachments.

At Settings > Message Formatting put a check mark at Plain Text Only.

Now your members can enter their information without affecting the layout if you put each item on a new line, with space in between and ask everyone to type replies into the blank lines.
Result, Headers the way you want them and replies beneath.
Clarity without attachments.

Shal, J, Bruce or the other seniority posters would know if incoming messages from HTML only poster are turned to TXT at GIO or if the setting only applies to the web.
Most eMail systems set for HTML are sending mail out in plain text simultaneously.
