Are you talking about a monthly reminder of the group guidelines? This is sent by the calendar and is one of the Member Notices. The owner/moderator writes it.

Here's what we all get from GMF:

FAQ on Moving from YahooGroups
GMF Wiki: (unofficial) Help for members (and would-be members) and group managers

I paid for Groups IO to transfer my gorups but they are putting the Wrong group members in the wrong group.

I need the to STOP.

This is really really bad.

I paid $400 to expedite 2 groups today and the are putting the wrong YG Members into the wrong new GroupsIO list.??

help please.? ?I have tried to email Tech support.? ?

Earlier this year Groups.io allowed hashtags and also automatically attaches them to some features, e.g. Calendar and Invite.

'Subject Line Bloat' also began earlier this year.

I don't want to use them either of them, but there are no controls to turn them OFF, yet.

WORKAROUND:
Admin: Settings: Message Policies:
Set to:
"Posts by subscribers can only by tagged with existing hashtags, new hashtags will be removed."
Click on "Update Group" (at bottom of page)

To prevent Moderators from creating (and deleting) hashtags:
Admin: Members:
Use the "Members, Moderators, Pending Approval, Bouncing, Banned" dropdown menu to select "Moderators"
Click on a Moderator's row (not the check box)
Scroll down to "Moderator Permissions" and make sure "Create/Delete Hashtags" is unchecked
Click on "Save" (at bottom of page)
Repeat for each Moderator


Even with that setting some Subject lines will be automatically hashtagged, e.g.:
#cal-reminder, #cal-cancelled, or #cal-invite, ETC

WORKAROUND:
Hashtags (not Admin)
Then "Edit" every (existing) hashtag to: "Moderated"
Click on "Update Hashtag" (at bottom of page)
Repeat for each Hashtag (current and future)

Now you will have to Moderate every Message and Notice that has a hashtag,
but it allows removal of any existing Hashtag AND correction of 'Subject Line Bloat', e.g.
from:
[CCSS] Upcoming Event: Cape Cod Scottish Session - Tue, 2019-11-05 7:00pm-9:00pm #cal-reminder
to:
[CCSS] Cape Cod Scottish Session - Tue, 2019-11-05 7:00pm


NOTE: Any Moderator (with "Approve Pending Messages" permissions) can approve any message,
so if they don't have "Create/Delete Hashtags" permission, you may also want to:

WORKAROUND:
Admin: Members:
Use the "Members, Moderators, Pending Approval, Bouncing, Banned" dropdown menu to select "Moderators"
Click on a Moderator's row (not the check box)
Scroll down to "Notifications" and make sure "Email when there are messages needing approval." is unchecked
Click on "Save" (at bottom of page)
Repeat for each Moderator

It is a PITA and better controls could fix that, perhaps after the 'great YahooGroups migration'...

first two attempts both yielded a notice that there was zero content
this for an account which has been active in multiple groups since 2003.

I've had the same experience with Yahoo's offered download "Your download request has been completed, but no data of this type is available in your account."? After 20 years of being active in groups you'd think that there might be something......

I've paid my $25 and used PGOffline to grab stuff from groups that look as though they are going to disappear :(?

Well, there doesn't need to be ONE correct one. The person will probably want to include them all.

I have to admit that I am completely and utterly lost. OK; you envisage a monthly message but of a type not covered by the standard Monthly Message facilty offered by Groups.io, but I cannot tie this in with the original title that you gave to this thread, i.e. What are the email addresses I should use?

Perhaps someone else might be able to work it out.

Hi friends,

I don't expect you to follow my little group's transfer saga avidly...but take a look at the last few days, and keep the faith!? (A minor caveat is that I didn't consistently check at the same time of day; but today was the first time that I saw such dramatic movement.)

All of the email addresses are in the zipped file I got from Yahoo and opened with MailDex 2020. They are in the mbox files they send you.?

I am just a regular member of the group - not even a moderator and now I have all the email addresses, even though the member list is hidden from me in the Yahoo Group website.

Just an FYI if you are trying to harvest email addresses for your groups.

Alex,

I just need the license key... you can't just buy one off of his web
page, you have to message him and then he sends you a invoice via
Paypal Tried BOTH emails... nothing in over a week.

I assume you included your Unique Code? Without that he can't/won't generate a license key:

Trying again from a different email account

That's probably a good idea, in case the one was blocking his replies to you.

Shal

Alex,

Maybe you can track him down in their forum...


I see Wilson has been active their recently. The forum also provides Personal Messagers (PM).

Slowly but surely we will all get there. I am at the 744 groups ahead of me. I'm OK with that. At least it will happen!?
Susan

Yes, thanks Bruce and Duane. David. *what*?? LOL It went right over me. I think I will just leave my settings as they are. I mean if people want to use them, knock yourself out. I just left it on the messages can be tagged with new hashtags.
Thank you!!

Have you tried the exact email address in the Members search box?

That isn't strictly necessary, or shouldn't be.? Just a "partial" of the address before the @ will find any match. (It will also work on addresses that have something personal after the @ but they are less common.)

I get the feeling that the original query was posed after a search on "Pending" members didn't produce any results; as Duane pointed out the search needs to be done on "Members".

Chris

Well, there doesn't need to be ONE correct one. The person will probably want to include them all.

I'll check on that. The person in charge of my Yahoo group is looking at getting someone else to do it and told me just drop it.

1.?I am happy to see we can transfer the archive of old message postings from YahooGroups to io.groups as part of the migration. ?I also see we can download the (newly) transferred archive. ?What form/format is that in when I download it? ?How can it be read?

Lisa -- The archive is exported in mbox format. It is readable using any text editor, but not is very friendly. I believe you can open it in Thunderbird and a few other desktop email clients, but have not actually tried it.

2. ?If our ?io,groups members want to just use the service to send from and receive in their email program, is that possible, or do users have to use the web interface?

If all you want to do is communicate by email, it is not necessary to ever log into the groups.io web interface.

3. ?If we use the io.groups migration service year one, I understand the annual fee is $220. ?Then can we go back to free in subsequent years?

Yes, assuming that after that one-year period your group storage remains under the 1GB allocation available to Basic groups. Otherwise at that point you will find yourself unable to upload any further such content to the group.

Regards,
Bruce
