I'm reading this help file: http://n5.nabble.com/help/Answer.jtp?id=30 and have questions...
It looks like I can have messages from my existing yahoogroup be sent to Nabble to create the information on on Nabble - allowing some members to participate via the nabble page and some members to participate via the yahoogroup. Am I reading that right? I currently have only a forum set up on Nabble. Is that where the exiting yahoogroups data will go? Or will it be somewhere else (sorry for such newbie questions). I'm thinking this might be a way to transition from the yahoogroup we currently use to Nabble allow us to continue to use the yahoogroup but be saving the data on nabble. Say do this for 3 months, so when we cut over to nabble it's not totally empty and has the last 3 months of data that was shared via the yahoogroup. Thanks, Coleen |

Here two of many lists we have archived: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/ http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/ You can archive your group in nabble so that your users can post via nabble interface or your yahoo group. In addition to it, new users can get to your group by your nabble site.

Please be patient with me, I'm really confused by all of this. So let's start with the instructions you provided...
I'm not ready to REPLACE my existing Yahoogroup yet, just take the posts being submitted to the yahoogroup address and add it to my Nabble forum. So I'm unsure which of these 3 steps you referred me to that I should be doing... I'm thinking I need to do just part of Step 1 (adding the nabble archive address to my yahoogroup) and possibly Step 3 (although since my users on on Nabble yet - perhaps that can wait). In Step 1. I think what I need to do is add some nabble address to my Yahoogroups as a member (so the emails generated by members on the Yahoogroup make it to the nabble mailing list). But it's unclear to me what that email addreass should be? My forum address is http://sudsol.1100894.n5.nabble.com Yahoo requires verification of ownership of an email address by clicking on a link in an email they send to the email address - how will I be able to do that? Where will I see the emails sent to whatever email address I shoudl be adding to my yahoogroup? I'm also confused if I should be going here: http://n5.nabble.com/archive-your-mailing-list.html and "Archiving My Mailing List" before I do any of this - or is that only so that people can post on Nabble and have it sent back to the yahoogroup? Thanks, Coleen |
You can test it in a sub forum inside your app. Go to Options -> Mailing List Archive Settings, after fill the form out, save it and you will see further instructions (Subscription Instructions).
There you will have the option to send the request for your list approval. You will see the list email address if you opt to subscribe the list manually. Try to get to this instructions and let me know if you have any issues.

Thanks. I think I've got it set up now.
