In Yahoo Groups, When does the archives stop? A few are saying Oct 28
Some say Dec? I had one lady tell me why put us all on individual mail,now when that wont affect us until Dec? Well for one it is getting them used to learn to read in email but another told her no archives go Oct 28 .

I found the answer at?/static/help Okay then, would it be possible to update (for the groups.io system) ... the description of that on the screen where a member edits his/her subscription preferences?? That menu doesn't tell you that the Summary mode doesn't contain any messages. |

Can you be more specific when you said you kicked this off "last week"?? Hi, Rich,? I hope you'll forgive me for my vagueness specifying how long it took for my site to be migrated.

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI¡¯m very confused right now. ? I set up the new io groups, paid the fees. I then sent several invitations from YAHOO to the transfer io address per the instructions over the past few days.?

Re: Format for file names
Jerry, when you uploaded the files, did you enter that full address in the file

name box, or did you use the browse button and just pick out the file you wanted to upload. If the former, that could possibly explain what you're seeing (not sure - never done it that way). Jim Fisher On 20 Oct 2019 at 11:09, Jerry Berg wrote:

transfer question
Hi Shal, I paid the subscription annual fee of $110 (but admittedly it was only yesterday - and shows up in groups.io as ?changed the group plan to premium, yearly billing via web) so I might be jumping the gun a bit on this. What I have also done is go into the yahoo group and sent the invite to the transfer address, (which says it was successfully sent). But when I look at the Yahoo group activity and members, nothing is showing up that I have sent anything. I am not sure if I have done everything right - I thought I did.? Maybe I am just being impatient. I am really new to this?process. Jules - yahoo group jules36_2000@...?- Townes-Brocks Syndrome - Support Group new group .io jachrist69@... (new group) to transfer into this one? Any assistance in finding out that the invite from my old yahoo group actually did go through to ask for assistance is greatly appreciated. thank you, Jules |

Incomplete Transfer
Hi all,
I followed the instructions in the GMF on transferring my Yahoo group (5700 members, 6 GB content) and three days later it says "Complete" on the Easy Transfer page.? 5500 members and many messages were transferred, but only one file and one photo have showed up in the new io group. If I delete the completed transfer request, will it also delete users or just the transfer request itself??? I emailed groups.io and they suggested I check with people in GMF. I appreciate any and all suggestions! Howard Hoyt [email protected] owner |

Re: A few questions about the yahoo change
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýShal - You nailed it. It wasn¡¯t quite a typo, it was that I¡¯d included the ?domain when I put in the Yahoo group¡¯s email address! So now the ¡°existing transfers¡± box says? ? ? ? You have 1 transfer in process or completed. The screen shots were exactly what ?needed. ?I did not notice if the notice at the top of the page changed to say ¡°We¡¯ve received the invite¡¡± I hope it did. I don¡¯t have the email from ?either but hopefully it will show up. Are they taking days to show up? As of now, ¡°transfer¡± has not shown up as a member of the yahoo group either but guess I¡¯ll just have to wait. I realized we have a second group that was set up on yahoo some years ago to hold files and photos we had no room for. This was before Yahoo gave us more storage space. I need to transfer it to ?too. It could possibly become a subgroup under our main group, but I¡¯m just not ready to tackle that now. Do I have to pay another $110 to do this? I hope not. Thank you Shal. As always you are a great fixer of problems!! Susan B ?On Oct 20, 2019, at 4:16 AM, Shal Farley <shals2nd@...> wrote: Susan, > Could you advise? My subscription email address to our yahoo group was > different from the one I used to join That doesn't matter in the slightest. > ... and reissued the invitation but the status box still says no > invitation is being processed or completed. The prior steps of setting up the transfer set up the automation to expect an invitation from the group name you specified. So once the invitation is received that status notice should change promptly (from "Make sure you have sent an invite to your group for the user [email protected] ..." to "We've received the invite ..." I can only think of two possibilities here: a typo when you entered the address into the Yahoo Group's Invite page, or Yahoo is backlogged in sending out Invitations. Notwithstanding the possible uptick in Invitations I'm skeptical of a backlog, as even Yahoo's automation should be able to handle that. Have a look at the screenshots in GMF's step-by-step and see if anything seems out of place compared to what you are seeing. Then let us know. /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups Shal |
Daily Summary Question
#messages
From what I'm reading, you receive a summary once every 24 hours. It could have very few messages or hundreds, depending on your group's message traffic that day. Is that correct?? Is it true that the summary contains only the first few words of each message and not the whole message?? Does it work that way regardless of how many messages are within a summary?? I'm uncertain what is true and what is untrue about any of this.
