I have sent several invites to email address of ??. (i.e. ).

Where do I report problems like this?

It still apears to me that our group's setting to 'text only' must be suppressing those text formatting options.

It is my understanding that current Groups.io users from domain X won't
be affected if an unrelated invited person from that same domain X marks
an invitation as spam.

I also checked that possibility by enlarging and shrinking the image in the window by using [ Command + '+' or '-' ]. Also checked by dragging the window larger and smaller.

I think this may relate to screen width, as Bruce suggested.

Would it be possible to post on those groups to ask folks to contact
you if they'd like an invitation? (Or give them the address to subscribe to the group?)

My concern would be how many would mark an unexpected invitation as spam, possibly causing other problems.

Legally, each post belongs to the person that made it.

However, GIO must have considered that when they did transfers.

What do the errors mean and why would this happen?

So my question relates to two issues: whether it is okay to invite people who are not expecting to be invited, and whether it is okay to make message archives available without every individual person's permission.

One thing I'm stuck on though is closing down the old Yahoo groups without?fully deleting them. There appears to be a way to set "Only moderators can post messages" but that option seems to be missing?for all of my groups. Any tips?

I think I just did this with a few of my old groups.

Go to this URL:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/YOURGROUPNAME/members/all
and sort by something unchanging, e.g. join date.

Then select some members and click Actions > Change delivery settings > No Email, or Actions > Set posting privileges > Override - can't post messages.

You can't perform these actions on more than about 50 messages at a time (you can select more at a time, but it doesn't apply it to all selected).

There is no easy way to tick the tickboxes (or check the checkboxes) for all members.? I used a little AutoIt script (I use it with Vivaldi browser):

Sleep ("2000")
For $i = 1 to 50
Send ("{SPACE}")
Sleep ("100")
Send ("{TAB 2}")
Sleep ("200")
Next

Hello everyone

I would like to create a couple of mailing lists (5 or so) to replace some dead Yahoogroups groups that were all related to user support for particular versions of a software product.? Most of those groups still have many users, but there is almost no activity anymore.? The owners of the groups are surprised at the fact that their groups' archives have been deleted (they did not know!), and is now encouraging users to join the product's universal Facebook group.? The owners believe that mailing lists are outdated and that most people want to use Facebook these days, but there has been some negative response to these announcements.

I'm not sure if these groups will become "alive" again when they become Groups.io groups and many of their members join the groups here, but I would like to give people this opportunity, and I would like to make the archives available on Groups.io (in the database section).? It may be that even if many people join these groups, they will become no more than accessible places to search the archives, with little or no actual conversations taking place -- although there are ways to artificially generate interesting, relevant traffic on a list (e.g. news about new releases, etc.) and encourage people to start replying.

I don't have permission from the group owners for any of this, although they know that I'm going to try.? The groups' archives on Yahoogroups were public.

So my question relates to two issues: whether it is okay to invite people who are not expecting to be invited, and whether it is okay to make message archives available without every individual person's permission.

I suppose it could be said that the group owners "own" the archives and that only the group owners can give permission for uploading the archives.? On the other hand, I could take the approach that I simply inform everyone whose e-mail addresses are in the archives about the fact that their e-mails are now hosted here, and give them the opportunity to "opt out" of having their old mails hosted here.? I could further ensure privacy by replacing all e-mail addresses in the archive with special numbered addresses so that the real addresses don't show up in searches but so that I can search for such people's e-mails (for easy deletion of messages)... however, that approach won't remove other identifying information from the archives.

As for inviting members, what do you think?? If I can get a list of all recent and previous members of the old groups, do you think it's acceptable/ethical to send them a once-off invitation via Groups.io, explaining the reason for the group, etc.?? What is Groups.io's attitude to that?? Is it assumed that a person who gets an "invite" will already be expecting the invite?

Thanks
Samuel

Dear Owners and Moderators of GMF,

?

I want to thank you for the enormous job you did, especially in the past few months managing the issues, questions and needs of so many newcomers to groups.io!

It seems to have been a “rock around the clock” challenge to all of you, and I really admire your remaining calm and composed in spite of the fact that questions just answered were repeated again and again and new ones seemed to burst upon you by the minute.

?

It must be mentioned that your work here doubtlessly eased to a large extent the task that Mark had to perform in these “rough” times and that it was (and is) a valuable accompaniment to his extraordinary performance. I hope you can get some recreation and stay healthy!

?

I wish all of you a happy and peaceful NEW YEAR 2020!

Victoria
