Re: To sub group members automatically get main group posts?

If all main group emails go to everybody in sub groups, then the organizing group responsible for the list should have their own sub group for their own internal organizing.Whenever a subset of the general membership exists, and might need to discuss things among themselves without the involvement of everybody else, this is a natural case for a subgroup...with the membership at large in the main group. Examples include a committee, board of directors, and so on (Ref:?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Why-use-a-Subgroup#Examples). Bruce |

Re: Identifying Sub-Groups
Larry,
Is it possible to determine and identify sub-groups of which you are aYes. If the group has subgroups there should be a Subgroups button in the left-column navigation list. On that page there are sections for "Subgroups You Belong To" and "Subgroups You Can Join". However, there may be other subgroups that are not made visible to the parent group members (that's in the subgroup's Settings) and those will not be listed in the You Can Join list.

Re: YGroups shutdown... In progress?
Paul,
BUT... in the queue of the individual messages in that Topics list,I've been seeing that a lot in the last couple days. Generally refreshing the page will eventually cause the message body to display, but it may take several. I've had better results with Edge than Firefox, but that could be coincidence (I generally read in email, not on the group's pages). The only YGroups I've got left now are GMF and one other gardeningThe plan is to keep GMF on Yahoo going in the new email-only era. I'll use some other facility (possibly YahooGroupedia) to host reference material which I used to cite just by pointing back to prior messages. But how Yahoo is choosing which groups get converted first is aI don't think the deliberate removal of access is underway yet. I think what we're seeing with message body access is simply a manifestation of Neo's long-standing problem with accessing content in the face of server congestion or problems.

Chris,
2 - messages were also downloaded (file format I could open only withThose are mbox format - Mail Box - a standard for email storage. Text based, but not particularly human-friendly as it includes the full header and encoding of the raw (View Source / Show Original) email message. Try opening them with Thunderbird or another email program, or with a more general file reader.

YGroups shutdown... In progress?
Just FWIW . . .
I've just finished unsubscribing from about twenty YGroups and noticed with several of those groups that the truncated messages showed in the TOPICS list on the message archives page. BUT... in the queue of the individual messages in that Topics list, when a message was clicked on it would load but there was no text displayed other than the subject line. The only YGroups I've got left now are GMF and one other gardening group. Left them just to see what will happen when the Y!G conversion/downsizing gets into full swing. The way it seemed to me today is that it's happening piecemeal, affecting only certain groups. But how Yahoo is choosing which groups get converted first is a mystery. Before I unsubscribed I sent a message to the group owners of several of my YGroups encouraging them to come setup a free, basic group on GIO. Hope that they'll consider doing so. Cheers! Paul M.

Re: "CHANGE: We are no longer accepting new Yahoo Group transfer requests"?
BMaverick,
YG will be going DARK today. Not sure if it's 12-noon or 12-midnightA letter from Yahoo Concierge care says 11:59 PM Pacific time (2019-12-15 07:59 UTC): Public archive, no membership required (it took me a few refreshes in Edge to get it to display). They might be prompt. Or the removal of access may "roll-out" over time as most of their prior changes have.
