after almost 24 hours, [email protected] isn't a member of my Yahoo group

 

i get a "We've received the invite to your group and will accept it soon. There is no need to send another invite." I am very aware of the pile that the system must be dealing with, but how long is reasonable to wait?

Thanks

That depends on how long the wait list is.? Based on comments, I'd say at least a week right now.

Rhoda, don't forget that you can check the status of the transfer.

From the FAQ -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/FAQ-on-Moving-from-Yahoo-Groups

11. How do I check the transfer status?
?
Tansfer requests are sorted by when the go ahead is given to transfer the group.

When you click on the green "Set Up New Transfer" button at bottom left of the Yahoo groups transfer page (/yahootransfer), a new page will come up where you can enter the source and destination group names.?
?
There is also a series of checkboxes for the various areas of the group to transfer (files, photos, members, messages, etc). Simply uncheck the ones you don't want before clicking the "Start New Transfer Process" button.
?
If you've already started a transfer, return to the Yahoo groups transfer page (/yahootransfer), select the transfer you've already started from the "Existing Transfers" list (pull down the menu and click on its name). On the resulting page you will see the same series of checkboxes. Uncheck the ones you don't want and then click the "Update Transfer" button. Actual transfer status for any ongoing transfer can be found in the status box at the top of the page.

I sent my invite on Tuesday and got the notice today they had joined my Yahoo Group. So that was about 3 days. However, I have not received the email that is supposed to come telling me to make the [email protected] a moderator yet. I'm waiting for that before proceeding to the next step. Need to follow the instructions from /yahootransfer verbatim.

Steps To Transfer Your Group

These steps?must be done in this order?otherwise the group transfer process will not happen.

  1. Create your new Groups.io group and upgrade it to premium for a year.
  2. Set up and start the transfer process by clicking the?Set Up New Transfer?button, below. You'll be asked to select your Groups.io group and for the name of your Yahoo Group.
  3. Send an invite?from your Yahoo Group?to?[email protected]
  4. We will accept the invite and then send you an email directing you to make the?[email protected]?member a moderator.
  5. After you have made the?[email protected]?member a moderator, return here, select your?Existing Transfer?transfer, and tell us that you are ready for the transfer to happen.?Your group must be signed up for the Premium Yearly plan.
  6. Once we receive the go ahead, as soon as we are able, we will download the member list and other parts of your Yahoo Group and directly add your members to your new Groups.io group.
