Jim,
... I haven't received a response and don't know what method ofThe In Process page for your transfer should tell you the status of your invitation. If it says it has been received then you're good. You'll be emailed (at the address that initiated the transfer) further instructions once the transfer agent accepts the invitation.

Jim,
According to the transfer page it says that I should have heard aboutA screenshot would help me understand what you're seeing. I don't currently have any transfers in process to compare with. I have followed the directions carefully but no answers and nothing inWhat do you mean by "nothing in the In process box"? It is a drop-box, you have to click on it to see the list of your transfers In Process. If you've clicked on the drop button and no Yahoo Group names appear then you haven't actually started a transfer. If one or more Yahoo Group names appear, click on one to bring up its "In Process" (status) page. so I assume it is taking longer than what the page says.So far as I know it takes no time for the site to put the Yahoo Group name into the In Process list after you click the "Start Group Transfer Process" button. Hence my desire for a screen shot, as I can't see how the setup page changes after clicking that button (without starting a transfer). The original request was over a week ago and I have filed updatesIf you've been clicking the Update Transfer button your transfer request that may be putting you to the back of the queue each time. But I think that button is only on the In Process page, which you say you can't find. So how is it that you "file updates to the request" and where is that directed? It appears that the only way I will know if the invite is delivered toA banner on the In Process page should tell you. See the screenshot here: /g/GroupManagersForum/message/10162 Can anyone tell me if there is a problem with my request or if thereAside from what you can learn from the user interface, only [email protected] can tell you anything about what's going on behind the scenes.

Jim,
According to what you say here they system is not receiving the inviteThat could be true. But you haven't answered my questions so I'd say that's just a possibility. On the Start Transfer page, at the bottom is in bold letters is theDoes clicking on it produce any response at all? It should at least drop down an empty list (the top line of the list is always just that hyphen that you see when the drop-down is closed). If not maybe there's a problem with the browser you're using. That would be a bug to report to [email protected], but first you should try another browser to be sure. If it drops down a list containing only that hyphen that certainly indicates a problem with getting your transfer "into the system". So far as I know your Y!Group address should appear in the In Process list as soon as you click the "Start Group Transfer Process" button below the checkboxes, before you've even sent the invitation. I have been to the help page, been to this group and read everything IHave you contacted [email protected] ? Ultimately that's the place to report bugs with the system.

Art,
My status here is that my invite to "transfer@... " (twice) hasThat depends on what the In Process page for your transfer says. If it says the invite has been received then you just need to wait for notice that the invitation has been accepted. Revisit the In Process page from time to time to check for any new status messages at the top.
