For Yahoo, there is yahoo2mbox. But over time as a group member with email enabled you would have received all those messages anyway and simply keeping them would be as effective. For Google their RSS service might be useful. Again, though, if you have been a group member you've been receiving the messages. > Also you don't have a good way to get data in either.

I was able to redirect, using Thunderbird and the Mail Redirect add-on, all PLUG messages from the last two days to a Google group I just created: http://groups.google.com/group/plug-playground/topics. Dates and authors were preserved. I suppose the same could be done with a Yahoo group. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
