Re: Moderating
Stan, I said that I agree with Barb that some groups probably need moderating and that is up to the owner of that group, not you or me. My group is not moderated and never has been. Cherrill Your

Re: Moderating
In my group I also have members who have been in it a long time or who I have known outside the group for a long time, but that is not the reason I do not moderate them. Perhaps in some groups it is

Re: Moderating
Stan, I think the site is safe. My company has used it to check all of our company email addresses and haven't had any problems. It did turn up a couple of addresses in data breaches of retail stores

Re: Messages under wrong year!
Philip, It is possible that is not a bug. Some Yahoo Groups started by migrating the membership and archive from an earlier service. Basically what your Groups.io group did. You could have a look at

Re: Moderating
It seems to me that those who are in charge of this group set the rules, and the rest of us obey them. I see nothing wrong with being moderated myself, and the groups.io that I'm a co-owner of is

I am confused by the use of the term 'Archives'. One individual in my YG is against the move to IO because, among other things, it would require him learning how to access the 'archives.' Maybe it is
