Too late. The IO Groups scheme terminated on Dec 1. Now you have to do the work yourself – you have until Dec 14.

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.style="PADDING-LEFT:5px;MARGIN-LEFT:5px;BORDER-LEFT:#000000 2px solid;PADDING-RIGHT:0px;MARGIN-RIGHT:0px;" dir="ltr">

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]Hi Bill,maybe the "Feedback" link can help. There is a section named "Support Issues", perhaps you could post a support request there asking Yahoo to restore your access.IstvánHey, Bill,
Sorry to hear about the computer problems with the loss of login details. If you've got a moderator or two that have been helping you with the ShipOnedinGroup, they might have enough access to the Group to get the transfer done. So far I've only got one reply from the other Group owners I've asked, but here's what he had to say:
"I just created an account. I did not do their formal transfer or pay anything.One of my moderators and I both backed up the Yahoo account and he mostly added the files to IO. He may have done the messages as well, but I have them and keep forgetting to look or add them myself.As far as the membership goes, people have to go there and join if Yahoo completely tanks.Those are the only things I can tell you."So it looks like they didn't do much more than start the Groups.io account, and rather than pay for the powers at IO to do the transfer, they transferred the files themselves, and now just have to upload the messages. As for members creating their accounts, it was actually easier than it was creating my Yahoo account. Once the Groups.io account is created, members just have to send the usual request to the Group they want to join (so that much is pretty well the same as with Yahoo). Also, with Groups.io the first message any new member sends is moderated, so the Group owner and moderators will have to approve it. After the first message, it's posting as usual with no moderation… unless the Group owner or a moderator deletes the message for some reason; again the same as with Yahoo.
I'm still waiting on the others I've asked about the migration to reply. They have busy lives with work, so it might take a day or so, though I did mention the urgency of the 14 December deadline. As soon as I hear more I'll let you know.
I hope some of this was helpful.
All the best,Dino.

I was unable to get into the site as it just came
up 'email address not recognized'.Interesting because this is the same one as they
sent the message on!Anyway I dug out an old laptop I used about 9 years
ago and fortunately on it were the login details of another account I'd made to
guard against being locked out this and other Yahoo groups.I got to the group panel and have downloaded all
the files.So what now?Bill.style="PADDING-LEFT:5px;MARGIN-LEFT:5px;BORDER-LEFT:#000000 2px solid;PADDING-RIGHT:0px;MARGIN-RIGHT:0px;" dir="ltr">

[Non-text portions of this
message have been removed]Hi Bill,could you check if you can send an invite from the group to an email address?
If so, it seems to me that the groups.io transfer can still work. You need to create a new group there, and upgrade it to premium for one year. It costs $220 when paid in advance for the full year, or $20/month. I am willing to do this including paying for it (and then later we can organize some sharing of the cost, but let's not try to do it now as time is scarce), but only if you can send an invite, as otherwise it will not work. So, please check if you can send an invite.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]Bill, I have received your invite, however, I noticed then that groups.io does not accept any new transfer requests (https://groups.io/yahootransfer)... So we have indeed run out of time 🙁That said, I have found this tool: https://github.com/IgnoredAmbience/yahoo-group-archiver. I have managed to download all content (all conversations, files and photos), except the member list. I could set up a forum on my server (which I mentioned earlier) and import this data into it, just as groups.io could have done.However, it would be nice to have member list as well (though, of course, people would be able to subscribe once the forum is up). I think the reason for the tool failing to download it is that my user account has no access to it.Bill, could you make me an administrator or some other kind of user with a higher access level, so that I could try downloading the member list?Thanks,IstvánOn Fri, Dec 6, 2019 at 4:09 PM István Váradi <ivaradi@gmail.com> wrote:Perhaps it failed, because I am already in the group with that email address.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]sgflikchik,
You signed up by asking to join this Group. No one can just remove you because you're asking. If you want to leave you've got to do it yourself. Log into the Group on the Yahoo! Group site for the shiponedingroup (here is the direct link for that if you need it: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/shiponedingroup/info).
Once you're signed in look for the pull-down menu for "Membership v" (the v is the down arrowhead indicating the pull-down menu) which is on the right side of the page just below the Group's banner. Note: the Group's banner at the moment is just a large grey rectangle. (You'll see a small black circle with a white ? in it next to the "Membership v" link.) Click on that Membership menu and select the "Edit Membership" link at the bottom.
Once you're in the Edit Membership area, look down the page for the "Leave Group" section, which is the last section on that page. Then just click on the button that says "Leave Group" and you can go on your merry way.
Dino.—–Original Message—–
