That would be great even if just to read.

That would be awesome, but so far have not heard anything. Thanks. Would love seeing the yahoo groups return even if we can’t post but can read.

You had all the info I needed to get the yahoo group archives I was looking for. Thank you! However, perhaps have an executive summary at the top to distill the process. Something like:
1) go to https://archive.org/details/archiveteam_yahoogroups
2) Search for your group name under “search collections”
3) if you find your group, click through on the icon, then download the “WEB ARCHIVE GZ” from the right (it will download a warc.gz file)
4) after you unzip the warc.gz, use an online tool like replayweb.page to read the raw warc file
5) note: you can also rename the warc file to warc.txt and then search/process it on your computer as a giant text file (which can be easier to manage than many warc browsers, particularly if you are good with unix)

I was moderator of the Eva Cassidy group for over a decade. I’d so very much like to retrieve the messages.

Google Chrome book doesn’t seem to like the formatting information, it just prints it as text. But getting the WARC file to actually load and be readable even if mixed up is wonderful. I can piece it all back together in a document.

I found the instructions very difficult to understand as well
