But some of them overlap, both in subject and in members, and it would make sense to merge them into a single subgroup. Is that possible?
I believe that's entirely possible. When doing the paid transfers, do one for each group, but use the same destination subgroup. To minimize the possibility of problems, I'd only transfer one at a time. If you're doing it manually, it becomes more tedious and you can't actually import the messages without6 resending each one.

I am currently in the waiting line for my first group migration. (Sent out the [email protected] invitation yesterday, nothing back yet. It鈥檚 mega busy probably!) Once this groups has been successfully transferred I鈥檒l try the next one with the same destination and see what happens. :)

Send out the invitation to <[email protected]> from each of your YahooGroups now.
So you won't have to wait for invitations to be accepted before giving the 'go ahead' to start the transfer each YahooGroups one at a time

When using Reply to Group to reply to an email the content from other replies is removed.

This is normal when using the link in an email.听 You need to use the Reply function of your email client in order to have content included.

There are programs available elsewhere to download/archive a Yahoo group.听 Several have been mentioned in other posts recently.

If you're replying from the email you've received, how much quoted text you have may depend somewhat on the email handler you use. On mine (I use OEClassic) it's set up to include the entire message as quoted text. I simply click on Reply and the original message appears with room at the top for adding a reply. After all, the message came from the group and you're replying to that address. You don't need to select anyone else because the groups.io system handles all that. After I've input my reply I scroll down and remove as much of the quoted material as I think is appropriate before sending.

For a person who's getting a message with no quoted text, click on "View/Reply Online" link in the message footer, which will open up the entire thread on the web page.

I hope this helps.

Some good news for all of you anxious about your migration from Yahoo.

I'm happy to report that last week I created my first forum here, upgraded to Premium for $110, and then initiated the steps for Groups.io to do the migration:听听/static/transfer听补苍诲听/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups.

Be sure to carefully read and follow the steps on the above pages.

Today our new group.io is fully migrated and active, including:

• 7,000 messages, properly owned and properly threaded
• 1,300 members
• 100 MB of files, attachments, and photos

Given the workload that Yahoo's closure is causing, and differences in forums, your results may be different.

But, have hope!听 Migration WORKS and the team at groups.io is clearly working to clear the backlog.

Tony: This page has the messages app link and installation instructions:

There is also an IE option under:

• In "Internet" or "Intranet" click on Custom Level
• In the Security Settings scroll down until you see 鈥淚nclude local directory path when uploading files to a server鈥� and disable it.

You have already updated the transfer agent to Moderator and clicked on the "Give Go Ahead to Transfer" button, right?

听At this point I just sit and fidget, correct?

Jerry -- That is really weird. I've never seen anything like that.

What browser are you using? Any add-ons that might affect this?

Bruce

Good info, thanks.听 I did not realize that you could edit a file name this way.听 It does work on my setup.听 But it would be burdensome if you had to change each file name after you uploaded the file, especially if you were uploading a bunch of files at one time.听 I would think there is something in the group settings that might affect the way this is handled (I am the group owner), but if it's there I can't find it.

Robert -- It's okay if some have the display name and some do not.

Just note that any single entry [read: line] not conforming with either standard will throw an error and fail to be processed.

Jerry, I would edit the names when I create the PDF. (Might be different with your OS.)
However, you can edit the names now - yes, tedious with so many, but doable.
Use the Update icon beside each file.
