Re: How to Effect a Transfer (was: create subgroup with transfer)
Robert....
I am not sure that I follow the above.? I want to do one thing.? I want to save 11 years worth of emails from my yahoo group. Will the The Chrome applications that Mark Fletcher wrote do this for me?? What kind of file format will all the emails be in?? I am not interested in down loading a list of members.? I want to down load all the email on the forum. Is this a tool that will do that?? Are other tools available? Thank you, jack |

Re: saving yahoo email
I paid the $110.00 Then I started the transfer.? Normally, will I/O move over all my email?? If they will then problem solved.
They did say something about yahoo not working well, and maybe they would not be able to transfer everything over.? What do I do if not all the email comes over? Linda, that you for the link to I will check it out. Bruce, do you have any thoughts on saving all my email?? I would like it to appear in the I/O group after i moves over. Thanks everyone for the help. jack |

Based on this banner, you did not send the invitation correctly. I must have had a typo in the email address I used for my invite yesterday, because I just checked, and my transfer setup transfer bar now says Thank you!-- deborah -- Deborah |

Deborah -- It's entirely possible that you did everything right. Yahoo's invitation system is just one of many things that have become increasingly unreliable. I've been there, and understand that this is stressful, probably even more so under the circumstances. Once you get the process completed you will not only breathe easier, but delight in working with a platform that -- for the most part -- will work the way you expect it to.

Based on this banner, you did not send the invitation correctly.
As the banner above states, the Yahoo group invitation should have been sent to [email protected]. If you put in some other email address during the invitation process, that's why the transfer agent hasn't received it yet. At this time you need to return to your Yahoo group and send another invitation. ?
Thank you, Bruce. I'm almost positive I invited [email protected] yesterday, but I just did it again, and YG confirmed the invitation was sent successfully.
?
Earlier today, I invited a friend, just to test the invite process. She got it right away, and when she followed the link, clicked on the purple 'Join this Group' button and then entered the necessary info, I got the YG? new member notification email. So, I'll just sit tight and wait for i.o to respond. Once I see their status banner acknowledge receipt of the invite I'll be able to relax a bit.

Many thanks -

Re: Moving to IOGroups
Susan, there has been quite a bit of discussion here about this. (Understatement!)?
See suggestions about the message archives. And also about inviting members using Groups.io? /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Inviting-new-members But I wanted to say that you could put a message on your YahooGroups saying that your site is moving. Put in the new address.? Before you do that, you might want to consider your setup on Groups.io. /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Quick-Start-for-Group-Formation Frances -- /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki /static/help More help: use the search button at the top of the Messages list. |

Re: How To Make i.o. Cover Photo Banner Sized
Hi again,
Using Preview may distort your image. However it may not matter. I just tried with a photo with a group of people and that DOESN'T work well if you try to force it to 900 x 300. Keeping the Scale Proportionally box ticked worked better. ?I got a better photo but not a real banner photo. It is workable though.?

Question about saving yahoo email
Thank you Bruce.....
I paid for the $110.00 plan.? I have 11 years worth of email on my yahoo group.? I run a very specialized group that requires a lot of technical data.? While we do have files and photos, the most valuable thing in my group is the past email.? When I got the email from I/O , they said they may not be able to transfer all of it - it seems like yahoo is acting up (I can believe that).? But if all my email is not moved over, I d not know what to do. Do you or anyone else know of any software tools I can use or buy that would let me down load all my email???? Or can I pay I/O extra money to have them give it another go at getting all my past email?? I can manual down load all the files and photos.? It is the important history and technical information in the emails that I am so desperately trying to save. Advice appreciated. jack |

Re: Hotmail/Outlook email
You can also write a simple rule and place it at the top of the rule list:
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
Create a folder i.e. YOURGROUP_Messages Apply this rule after the message arrives from [email protected] move it to the YOURGROUP_Messages folder and stop processing more rules Just a thought.

This is an automatic feature.? The email sent in doesn't actually go to anyone.? If you have a restricted group (requiring approval of members) the person will end up in the Approval Needed queue.?

It's highly suggested that at least one owner or moderator choose to accept these.? By default, you should be set to receive All Messages to the Owner address.? If you don't, it will only get stored under the user's "Owner Email" tab and you may never know it was sent. This is an auto reply address and nothing is stored anyplace.

Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 13:16:52 CDT Deborah -- Using your favorite image editing software, you need to crop the image to the required dimensions, not just resize it.
Ohhhh - I'll try that. THANK you. deborah -- Deborah |

Re: Forwarding emails

Ted, I believe you are asking where are the forwarding emails sent.
The Group Owner email address goes to you, if you are group owner. See?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Owner-emails Unsubscribe is system. You don't do anything as owner. If you want to know where you set your preferences - it is in your subscription - left side menu. https//YOURGROUP.groups.io/g/main/editsub I think the Help email goes to the official Help page -?/static/help Frances -- /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki /static/help More help: use the search button at the top of the Messages list. |
