Bill - Can you see the earlier messages? I'm wondering if the transfer agent ran into the something similar to what?I have. I'm trying to rescue an orphan group, and as of yesterday morning Yahoo tells me the group doesn't even?exist, even though it's still?in my list of groups.?At this point all I can do is wait a few days and hope Yahoo restores things.

If you *can* see those first messages, your options may be to request another transfer or contact support. Bruce can best?advise you on those options.

Re: "Average Pace" of transfers
This is a crazy system. We were 691 groups ahead of mine at 2:30 this afternoon. Has anyone paid extra in the last couple of days and can tell me what the progress chart looks like for you? ? |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýDidn't I see something to the effect
that Groups.IO will allow us only to carry 10 years worth of
message history??? So, with 2007 forward you have a bit more than
that.

Can I get a re-export/re-import of the missing messages??I don't know if attempting a repeat transfer for just the messages will work, or make a mess of things. Have you tried to access those old messages yourself, using Yahoo Groups' own user interface? If you can't, then the transfer agent probably won't be able to, either. Failing that, your best option is to contact [email protected]. Please come back and tell us what you find out, as this issue could come up again. Regards, Bruce |

Re: Deleting applications to join
We are finding people who were permanently banned from our Yahoo list are now applying to join the groups.io list.The original question was: They know they were banned [at our YahooGroups group]. Is it possible to delete their pending request without notifying them? So, if you 'pre-ban' on your Groups.io group, will they get any kind of response (and what will it be) if they apply to join? |

Re: Personalgroupware (PG Offline)
Another option to do with the messages is pretty simple if you are familiar with HTML and can do a tiny bit of PHP or can configure Apache
This gives you a complete website of your Yahoo group archive.
