As good a bit of evidence that it is spam or a phishing attack as you're likely to find. As it was from a non - member address, and you don't allow non - members to post its appearance in the Activity Log is entirely normal.

For fifty messages, I'd just do a cut and paste.

I can answer #1 sort of! Only previous years have the year showing. The current year is only month and date. We transferred some time ago and the years are there for 2018 and earlier. However perhaps someone who transferred a week or so ago can chime in.

I just transferred an old Yahoo Groups with 30k messages (no files, photos, attachments or members as we wanted to see it try it before doing that so temporarily on a google group) over to a Groups.io group and am pleasantly surprised!!? Lots of features and functions and i like the sub-groups.? They've thought of everything.

My questions for everyone who has also transferred from Yahoo Groups:

1) Did your messages Date-Year stamp come over properly?? I only received Month and Day not year, and given our messages span 20 years, its important to see the message's year and I am wondering if others had this issue.

2) We have 30k messages on the old Yahoo Groups.? For those of you with big sets of messages to transfer-- how long did it take you to get ALL your messages?? We did the expedite and it took a couple of days to get the first half (~16k), but I am still waiting on the other half of the messages (~16k).? Someone else had posted something about how the jobs are run.? I am curious about that.?

Thank you!!

Don,

I can't tell what you are trying to imply.

The message you reference appears to be a SPAM/phishing example.

There are settings in the Group Admin section for whether or not you want to Moderate or Block messages flagged as containing a virus.

And, of course, you have options for how non-member messages should be handled.
?
All I see is a message from a non-member being rejected. What is your concern?

I've done everything down to where you accept the invitation from the yahoo group. It's been about 24 hours. I've sent another invite but I now need to click on the "Set Up Transfer" button and I don't know where it is or how to get to it. Please help.

I am not sure where you are at in the process.

You say "Accept the invitation from the Yahoo Group". ?Do you mean TO the Yahoo Group from the groups.io Transfer email?

Have you paid for the year of Premium?

Please see the FAQ -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/FAQ-on-Moving-from-Yahoo-Groups

And in the FAQ - links in ?7. Where are instructions for transferring to groups.io?

Hello Mark

If don't know whether you have some deeper computer knowhow - and a linux machine too.
If your outgoing mail service provider allows so called relaying, you may send messages with any "from"-header you want. You could save the mails to files, edit the "To:"-headerfield from the yahoo-address to the groups.io-address, and? send them then with
cat $FILE | /usr/sbin/sendmail -i -t

If you don't have this possiblity, then you should watch out to keep the thread relations at least:
For each topic send only the hierarchically oldest mail.
groups.io will deliver it then to you as a normal groups.io-mail.
Now you can answer on this mail.
This will set you as author of all the mails, but it will keep the thread relations.

Gotcha. Thanks! It's really a short term solution. The owners and moderators skied up on us so I save what I could.

Hello,

I'd like to create a wiki with a structure like folders and subfolders and files. I remember mediawiki where you had to include the path in the filename, which then provided the wanted structure. But the groups.io wiki appearently replaces all slashes with dashes.

So it looks like all files are laying in a flat folder. Keeping a naming system extensible and having speaking URLs at the same time might become quite difficult if the file count increases.

Best regars

If you send all the 50 mails in parallel, you will have each mail in a separate thread.

Sorry about not being more specific. Non-members cannot post to group.

Actually, this entity tried three times before this post, each with a different post title.

So, there is no way to move just a few so we don't lose subject strings?

Mark -- This same question has been asked many times over the past two weeks.

You can download the message archive to your PC using PG Offline or one of the other tools previously mentioned.?Having done that, you can then print them to a PDF, which can be uploaded; or create an HTML file to put in your wiki...etc.

But no, there is no means available to incorporate them into your message base -- threaded, indexed, and searchable -- without paying the $220.

Hi

See the FAQ:
FAQ on Moving from YahooGroups
Has info on pricing to use the Groups.io transfer process and free or other alternatives.

5. What gets transferred using the Transfer Agent?

?

Groups.io can transfer message archives, properly owned and properly threaded, (without attachments, however), photos, files, links and databases. Calendar entries are not copied at this time. Subscribers (members) are also transferred, maintaining their subscription options and ownership of each message and other group content.

?

Those with "no mail" status in YG migrating to a Groups.io group with "no mail" disabled will have Special Notice status instead.

I thought maybe it was the iPad that was prevented me from seeing font styles and sizes.?

I just did some testing and you're probably right.? Try using your iPad in landscape mode, then check.? When the screen gets too narrow, some things are left off of the menu.

Hello folks,

Is there a way to move some messages from Yahoo to io? There are perhaps 50 or so I would like to import to maintain continuity and keep the conversations together for our new group.

Thanks for your hard work!
