[email protected] isn't a member of my Yahoo group

 

Hello;

I sent the invite and it was accepted. I received my email for steps to transfer; but I can't find [email protected] on my member list
to be able to make it a moderator of my group.
I have contacted support but they say they are overwhelmed and to ask here.
Please help

Sincerely;
Ed


Re: Groups.io does not accept invitation

 

It may be a couple of days before they accept. It took three days for my group to get accepted for transfer last week. I would guess it might be longer now as the backlog builds.

Re: Cant seem to post at Yahoo Groups

 

It seems to be happening to all groups. I've posted twice today but nothing has shown up. A member's post just got through but I have no idea how long that took.

Re: reading exported Groups.io group data

 

I'm sorry, I should have been more clear in the midst of the Yahoo fiasco: I meant the exported group data from Groups.io, not Yahoo. I've changed the subject to clarify too.

G.io has an option to download various group data, which is useful especially for larger groups that can't stay in the paid 10GB or free 1GB storage limit. I tried it out for one of my groups, and requested the member list, messages, group description, and cover photo. I got files back in multiple formats, a couple JSON, an MBOX, and the photo just says FILE. So once downloaded, how do I access those files? Is there one program that can open them all, or does this require multiple programs?

Thanks so much.

Isis

Susan,

I used Google Images to find one and saved it to my PC, then uploaded
it to GIO for the cover photo.

If you're concerned about copyright, make sure the image isn't under
copyright protection.

There is no mechanism for importing anything you download into a group here.? Downloading everything (as long as you don't delete it) won't interfere with a transfer.

You can go to a member's record and fill in the Display name if you want.? If it's blank, it makes no difference to groups.io or any properly functioning email service.

Yahoogroups to Groups.io message and member transfer

 

If we download our yahoogroups past conversations and existing members will we be able to import the conversations to groups.io?? I know there is a transfer process but if we download the yahoogroups database first then does that mean it can't be transferred to groups.io?? thanks!


Re: 2 questions about the Yahoo group transfer

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I just cleaned up all bouncing members. So the number of members reduced from 1200 to 800.
But I think that a big part of the 800 remaining members (especially those with the status "no mail") are not active anymore, with expired e-mail addresses. I think just 300/400 members are still active anymore, maybe even less. But only from the members who are somtimes writing in the group, I'm sure their profile is up-to-date.


I hope bouncing welcome messages will result in more outdated (bouncing) member profiles, but I will wait for the results.

Harm Selling

2. The member list of my group has a lot of members with the status "No mail". I'm afraid most of these members are not active anymore. Do these members receive a welcome message by joining Group.io? And if that message bounces, are these bouncing accounts automatically removed or do they automatically get the status "bouncing"?

Any bouncing members are NOT transferred.? If you allow the message to go out, everyone transferred will get it.? If you do allow it to be sent, it will contain a link for them to click on to be removed from the group.

Re: Paid to Move but problems

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi Bruce, I've sent a half dozen or more emails with very descriptive subject lines that Mark or any support? staff should notice despite the likely deluge? happening at [email protected] inbox?

I've cc'd my emails to [email protected] back to myself so it appears they are being sent. I miss the days when people used 'read receipts'.

Perhaps group names could have been shuffled but that would require contact with someone at groups.io which if it ever happens I will just ask then to manually process my third payment.

Re PayPal, as far as I know io only takes payments via their group upgrade page which still doesn't work for me.

Thanks for reading,

Charlie

You might want to contact Mark directly at support(at)groups(dot)io. With all the other stuff going on, he isn't closely monitoring posts sent there, but a subject line along the lines of "TRYING TO PAY YOU" would probably get his attention...if so, you should be able to negotiate a PayPal or some such transaction.

Hope this helps,

You could submit it to support, post it on the beta group as a suggested change, fill in the blanks for everyone, or add something to your Welcome message (and Guidelines?) saying that it's required.? I'd opt for the last one.? Since Notes and Exchange can be configured to avoid that problem, you could also contact the people in charge of them.

Would you please clarify how to fill in dummy names for those members who joined YG without including their names? In my YG, members whose name appears in the name field on the YG membership list are in the distinct minority. If I'm understanding this thread correctly, if their name field came over blank into .io their posts will bounce.

If Y! groups are down, I don't see it unreasonable to ask here. This is likely part of the problem Y! has created by announcing such a short shutdown window, and I suspect traffic on Y! is much heavier than anticipated with people grabbing content.
