Need help separating one group from my account

Dennis Storzek #41283 Hi, I manage two groups and subscribe to eight or ten others. Of the two I manage, one is a personal interest hobby group, and the other pertains to work. When I moved two years ago, I was going to lose my long time e-mail address, and, not having a new provider lined up,? I transferred my personal interest groups to my work e-mail. This had the effect of combining the accounts under that e-mail. I am now retiring, and want to hand the work related group off to someone else, but I can find no obvious way to separate it from my account. What am I missing? I don't want to lose continuity with any of the groups. Thanks, Dennis Storzek

I'd have the new person create an account, join the group(s) they'll need, then make them co-owner.? Once you're sure things are working properly, just leave all the groups that no longer interest you.? There are other work-arounds of course, but that should be straight forward. Once that's done, change your email address for your account to the one you'll be using.? Just make sure it doesn't already have a Groups.io account.

And the one that he no longer needs will be delete it. Joseph Hudson ?

That's been known to leave the group without an owner, though it's not supposed to happen.? I don't know if this has been 'beefed up' since I last saw the problem.

He could always make sure he finds a new owner for the group that he wants to drop anyway. But just stay a member of. toggle quoted message Show quoted text On May 31, 2022, at 9:08 PM, Duane <txpigeon@...> wrote: On Tue, May 31, 2022 at 09:05 PM, Joseph Hudson wrote: he can simply just merge the two It's best to NOT use the merge function if you own any groups.?
