PG Offline

Technically you should be able to import them but as you've noticed there's probably some subtle difference.

I would think that you could export as PG4 from the db3 you have and that could be imported into a more modern db3.

Cheers,

Wilson.

EDITED: Found it. You don't import db3...you open them.

I have some older PGO db3 from 2013...made with the prior version of PGOffline. I am having trouble importing them. When group is selected it shows 180 messages but nothing is imported.

Long shot here, but I was hoping someone archived the 16mm Narrow Gauge Modelers group. I was able to get the files and photos from the group but ran out of time for the emails.

We don't have an mbox merge suggestion, but someone wrote a tutorial on how to view mbox files using Sylpheed. Thunderbird can also import mbox after you install a plugin.

Got it, will do - what files do you want exactly?  ygroups.db3 ?
EDIT:  ygroups.db3 now uploaded.

I created a Dropbox folder for us. 

Please drop a zip of your data into the folder.

Any decent text editor?  Textpad, Notepad++

There's nothing mysterious about them.  They're just text files.

Cheers,

Ditto to what JoseHill said... thanks very much for PGO. It helped me keep and archive Groups that are special to a lot of people...

Can someone recommend a free tool to merge several MBOX files?

Well, that's very kind.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the PGO users over the years.

Without question, what PGO is today would not have been possible without you.

Cheers,

Wilson.
