Rex has created the QRpmeKits group to replace the Yahoo group.? Yahoo has stated that all Yahoo groups are now closed to new input.? Also that sometime in the future they will go away.
Note that all files are transferred but not Messages or Photos.? I've seen others offering to capture those but don't remember where.
?Chuck, if you or anyone got the Yahoo zip file they offered of all your groups then you or Rex might look at PGOffline:
then PDOffline I think can take the MBox file of messages and import it into Groups.io.? Same thing for files and photos but it can't and could not do attachments so any message that had an inserted or attached picture would not have the attachment.? As I recall, it did keep the descriptions that were with files.? I am not sure how it handles the "owner" of the file if they did not come over to Groups.io.? I think it makes the group owner the file owner and that is what will happen if Rex copies the files section content into this group but I can't see that as a problem.
I know a lot of admins used it to import yahoo group content over to groups.io when everyone was moving.
Good luck.
