Setting up a new group.
Hello again, After years of battling with Yahoo, with the help of Shal and the group, I've decided to test run an IO group. I know I'm being very dim here, apologies, but I can't even find how to do

Transferring my list was seamless¡ª 3,000+ members and 12 years of archives. Communication with our members was also perfect. Only 2 people have asked about how to send messages to the new address.

Hi Neil, If you have ever used another email group system - particularly Yahoo Groups or Google Groups - you'll find a lot of commonality in groups.io. Mostly it is self explanatory, so the best

Gina, As Joeseph and J said, yes you can. In fact you need to create your Groups.io group before you can start the transfer (copy). There is no time limit for initiating the transfer. I say "copy"
