Re: Help with transfer of an "orphaned" Yahoo group #pgoffline

Hi Chris,

In fact I have PA3DUV's e-mail address, both from the Yahoo group and from his QRZ record. The address is the same on both. He has not replied to any e-mails I sent, or even to posts on the old group.

In the end, using PGOffline, I successfully transferred the archived messages, files and photos from the old icom2kl Yahoo group to the Files and Photos sections of the new GIO group. As there were only about 650 messages, i was able to use the free version of PGOffline.

The message archive is in the form of 13 HTML files, each containing 50 messages. I placed it in the new group's Files section.

I also captured the old group's member list and invited all members from the old group. 120 valid invitations went out, and the GIO group now has 35 members.I anticipate that others will join over the next week or two.

Finally, I closed the old group. I completely agree that any group should have more than one owner. I need to find a co-owner for icom2kl.

Thanks to everybody on GMF for the kind help!

Cheers, Adam
