Thanks for replying, Oliver!

I understand the mailing functionality will continue. What I wanted to check today was whether my post, sent by mail, will also appear on the Yahoo! website. I am pleased to say it has.
> This is the functionality that egroups, as it was called before Yahoo! bought and renamed it, started out with. It's nice and suitably geeky that we can still use it in this way. You could mention it on JSW Central if you wanted new members to come to this group.
It's good that at least this functionality will continue. What I am still not sure about is whether or not after today (tomorrow, depending on which time zone you are in) Yahoo!'s website where the Group messages are displayed will disappear or not.
There is a link to this Group on JSW Central. If the website address of this Group disappears, I will have to change the info respectively.
> Did anyone archive the messages, e.g. by porting them to groups.io before today's cut-off date?
I have all of the messages archived and will make them available for download if necessary if the Yahoo! website disappears.
In fact, John Elliott has already made a download of the archive available.
> Keep the e-mails coming, everyone! I always enjoy reading about MM/JSW here.
We will :) .
