Thank you for the input Theo.

Here’s an update for everyone…

• Downloading the data from yahoo groups remains stuck, even after a few
  days. I only receive the message "We are currently processing your
  download request. Please check back later." Hopefully this will resolve
  soon. One last joy of working with Yahoo groups I guess.
  
• After researching, groups.io seems to be the best (easy porting,
  better group tools), but it is also requiring premium membership for the
  first year to do the transfer (approx $200). So I’m leaning towards porting
  this to google groups.
