Dino,
 
I don't seem to have my login details for the
group, these vanished some time ago with an old broken computer.
 
This email still works though
(obviously).
 
I have tried the recovery and it does not work
either.
 
So I'm unable to get to the control panel for the
group. So if that is needed I don't seem to be able to do anything.

Bill, I'm a member of a couple of other Yahoo Groups that have just
migrated to Groups.io. One thing I did hear was that Groups.io was charging a
$220 (US) migration fee. In all of the Groups that migrated, the owner asked
for members to donate what they could to help with that cost. Members donated
anywhere between $5 and $50 via PayPal to the owners
 with the owners posting daily updates on the
amount raised
 until the $220 was reached. Then the
owners used those funds to pay Groups.io.


I've just sent those Groups' owners an
email asking them what they did to get the powers that be at Groups.io to
migrate them over. I'll pass on anything they tell me ASAP.

Dino.

Moving the group to IO would require the administrator to
invite a certain e-mail address. However, I could not contact the
administrator. But we still have some time till Deember 14, so perhaps there
is still hope that the administrator steps forward and the moving can be
completed..

Hi István,

Here are the messages I
saved, I hope you can use them. I said

>They're in plaintext (including the mail headers)

but they are html format, the way they were
distributed. The headers let
them be displayed in readable
format, at least when given to Thunderbird
email. When I
put the file "onedin" in among other mail boxes while
Tbird
is closed, next time I open Tbird it sees the new file and builds
indexes for it… Then I see the messages in chrono order with
the html
correctly rendered. I hope this works for you.
Please let me know.
