Hi!

Below is the reply that I got from Yahoo! customer care. So no other option than replace this forum. Andreas, what about a web forum on your site? Has it got sql service?

Anyway I will check the possibility to resend all recent messages to a new yahoo maillist. I think YAM and Arexx could make wonders Please keep on this list still we could find any solution and forgive my mistake.

Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Groups.

I understand that you have accidentally set your "airsoft_hollywood" group to have a "Closed" Membership type and now wants to change it.

I regret to inform you that if a Yahoo! Group was created as a closed group -- or it has been changed to become a closed group -- it cannot be changed to an open or restricted membership. This is to protect the privacy of the members within that group.

Hmm, sucks.

Sure, but I don't like web forums so much. Mailing lists are more convenient if you ask me.

Well, I would suggest you set up a new mailing list and try to post all the old messages to that list. If everything works, we could then shut down this list and switch to the new list. But don't shut down this list until we have all old messages on the new list and also wait until all members know the new list.

That would be my suggestion. Of course, others can state their opinions on how we should proceed, too.

Exactly what I going to do...
