Migration questions


 
Edited

I¡¯m the owner of a Yahoo group.

?

I¡¯m planning a migration. I have just paid my annual premium groups.io fee and set up a forum.

?

I worry about GDPR compliance if I automatically migrate users. So I¡¯m planning to notify them myself about the move. (I¡¯ve grabbed the email addresses of all members from the Yahoo group.)

?

If I uncheck the ¡°Transfer Members¡± checkbox when migrating, can someone confirm that my Yahoo members¡¯ email and other profile info do not come across and that my Yahoo members will not be notified in any way?

?

What happens to posts in the above scenario? Are email addresses removed from the postmark/banners of Yahoo messages?

?

I suspect the infrastructure at Yahoo is failing. During the past weeks, files and attachments have been inaccessible.? Does anyone have any additional insight into this?? Can I migrate everything possible today, and then retry file migration in a week or two, in the unlikely (IMO) that Yahoo fixes their problem?

?

I may be merging a second Yahoo group into this one. I¡¯ve read somewhere here I¡¯ll be able to do that.

Any suggestions or help on any of the above?

?

TIA,

?

Tom
