Yes. See?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Renaming-a-Group

On number 2::

Log int your group on the web
On the toolbar to the right of "About", click on "Management"
Go down to "Manage Members" and click
Click on Members, Moderators, Bouncing, or Banned to select what you want
Click on "Actions" on far right end of toolbar
Go down to "Bulk Operations" and click on "Export"
Select "CSV Format" and click.

That will Export up to 1000 members to Excel.

2. In Yahoo! how do you email the whole list?? I know how to post a conversation but that no longer works.

Total newbie here. I'm trying to set up a new group for our 501c3. But on the set up line for group email address, I spelled it wrong. Can that line be corrected or do I need to delete this group and start over. So far no members other than myself.

Some quiet group owners may not have known.

I'd say that's unlikely. I haven't had an account on Yahoo
for 6 years and I got the email notifications they sent out
to group owners, so anyone that's still an owner would
have gotten them. I think they sent them to anyone that
had ever owned a group.

Like so many people, I created an email address on Yahoo, which was required when Yahoo took over groups. I never really used that address and had little reason to check it unless word got out that Yahoo was purging inactive accounts. Owner or moderator messages went to my primary email account through my independent ISP.

When word of the impending closure appeared on here, I went and checked my groups and found the notice on the group pages there. I never received messages to my primary email address. I even requested a backup from the dashboard and logged in to Yahoo to get that. But it wasn't until I started looking for the response that said my transfer was ready that I had occasion to look at my Yahoo mail. And finally, at that time, I found the messages to owners and moderators. So it is possible that some owners and moderators who operated almost entirely by email may have missed them, or found them too late.

This is just my experience.

I know but it is we owners that get yelled at . This is true many are on no mail and unless you email each one. or set those to individual email they may never know?

Don't mind me I am just cranky.?

That's why I am glad that there is the ability to disallow "no mail". And I am careful not to abuse my power to send special notices which many choose in lieu of "no mail".

And if more than 1000 members?? I have almost 4500.

There are two ways to get the membership info that I know worked:

?? In YG, export the membership (and other member lists, like bouncing and banned) as CSV's using the remaining functions unde the "Management" tab. This works for <1000 members.

?? Use PGO. I've not checked this still eworks

I think that is EXACTLY what happened.? I have created a new group called REALGroupName.

I never received any email from Yahoo! about this and while I saw the message on the page, it was referring to content, not that Yahoo! Groups was effectively going away (saying it is still an email list is SO disingenuous).

Is there a simple way to still extract the membership list from the Yahoo! group?? I am still owner on that list.

Thanks to ALL of you for your help.? It is sincerely appreciated.

Yes, they can be unmoderated. But you would have to moderate at least their first message if it is an unrestricted group.

Check out the Spam Control in Settings.
You must choose from among these four options. At least one of these options must be set as a spam-control measure.

• Restricted Membership - Moderators must approve any new subscribers.
• Announcement Group - Only Owners and Moderators are allowed to post.
• Moderated - ALL messages are held pending moderator approval before being sent to the group.
• New Users Moderated - Messages from new subscribers are held pending moderator approval. After the set number of consecutive messages are approved, the subscriber is automatically unmoderated.
