I would humbly suggest that everyone who still receives these messages
but hasn't already joined the jswmm.co.uk forum does so, and we carry
on interacting via that fantastic resource. I don't see the need to
set up another rival group at groups.io as it would just be a
duplication of what jswmm.co.uk provides (except I'm not sure if
groups.io allows sharing of files, as jswmm does?).

I understand that, but you always make a trade-off there, because forums and e-mail groups attract different people for different purposes. I won't use a forum for MM/JSW as I already use others actively, but I do enjoy hearing about MM/JSW somewhat passively from time to time. Horses for courses. There wouldn't be much duplication.

groups.io does allow attachments and you can also upload files, yes. (It's by the same guy who made egroups, which became Yahoogroups when he sold it to Yahoo!, all those years ago.)

Oliver.
