More than fair enough! Cheers, (Hope no-one minds, but for ease of reference, copying this one time the pertinent information re Groups.io below.) ----- Original Message ----- From: "brucexs-/[email protected] [power-pro]" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: 17 Oct 2019 17:29:05 +0000 Subject: [power-pro] Re: Groups.io alternative?? > I'm willing to take whatever is recommended by the group. > > I'm afraid I won't volunteer to set something or to be take on onerous moderator duties.

It's better to have one solution but I can look at two for a few months if people want to experiment for a while and decide which is best. -------------------- Copy-pasting info re Groups.io: ----- Original Message ----- From: "mitchellwma1-/[email protected] [power-pro]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2019 12:51:52 -0400 Subject: [power-pro] Groups.io alternative?? <was: Warning: Yahoo Groups Is Winding Down and All Content Will Be Permanently Removed> I have seen the mention today in a couple of my other groups of groups.io which has a basic, free option. It might or might not be a viable alternative (?) Its main page: https://groups.io/ - "A modern platform for online communities. Powerful management tools. Mobile ready. Free and paid plans. No ads, no tracking." - Free option includes 1G of storage I'm hoping it will turn out that the free, basic plan is enough for the still active Yahoo groups. But here is a page with the fee structure, which offers an additional 2 paid options: https://groups.io/static/pricing But one huge potential plus is the mention that's it's (allegedly) easy to migrate Yahoo or Google Groups over to it, and they include a button, each, with specific instructions for either platform: https://groups.io/static/transfer Not ever having started a Yahoo group myself I don't know what all is involved or if it would be a "right fit" type of solution, but maybe the information is of help. Thank you and cheers. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus ------------------------------------ Posted by: mitchellwma1-/[email protected] ------------------------------------ PowerPro's download site: http://powerpro.cresadu.com/
