This new attachments feature has screwed everything up. I can’t attach anything now with the new or the old system. NEITHER WORKS. Who can help me with this? It is very important as I am applying for jobs right now. I am REALLY FED UP.

We are having difficulty with the new Yahoo Groups. When I send out a message WITHOUT an attachement, the message still says there is 1 attachment.
Then I get a slew of messages from people asking me to resend the attachment – of which there was NONE!
How do we solve this, I cannot find anything in the FAQ or HELP files.
Thanks!

For crying out loud it’s been THREE months! When is the search feature going to work? For our Yahoo group (which is about 4 years old) the search has no messages available after March of this year. It’s ridiculous how long it is taking to “update” one feature that is important to our site. I’m glad these people aren’t trying to fix the economy. Uh oh maybe they are and that’s the problem??? Come on guys get it going or bring back the old search feature that worked just fine!

A lot of people are waiting for some sort of resolution to our problems with this seriously awful new attachment system. This is the latest post on the subject and it was posted at the beginning of May. It’s now nearly July. Are we talking weeks, months, years before we get some sort of solution?

Can we get an update here or is Yahoo’s attitude toward people who are having problems “who cares about you guys?”

I can’t post from my group site, or rather I do post but they never show up..this is the same for all the groups I belong to.

why would some members of our group be allowed to attach photos on the message composition page of the web-based version of yahoogroups, but others cannot?

I can understand why the attachments mechanism has changed (far less load on Yahoo servers and it might work with digest) but tonight it’s not working for our group

The attachments are all corrupt – or rather too small. I’ve just sent a 451KB attachment to a group and when it’s downloaded, it’s only 50KB…

Tried three times and have give up now.

Cheers, Rob.
