[SFDXA] groups.io migration?

[Bill]

This is the first I have heard about this?

Mailman has provided this club protected communications for 20 years. No 
one has gotten infected or had a phishing attempt or hack since it's 
start about 2001. Personal emails have been phished on their own 
accounts and attempts made. But not from being subscribers through 
mailman lists. Many groups still very happily maintain their 
communications using this method.

Unknown to the group probably, is there have been hundreds of attempts 
to penetrate this list over the years. Many bad players have tried to be 
subscribed to send out their advertisements, spam and virus'. The list 
has caught every one(I'm pretty sure) and passed it along to be 
reviewed. 175-191 subscribers to the SFDXA Reflector around the world 
have been protected successfully over the years. My personal experiences 
with Yahoo(now defunct except direct emails) and Groups.io has not been 
that rosy, and I have been sent virus and spam from 15 lists I am on.

I strongly recommend the SFDXA list be maintained for communications 
with Members and subscribers, from all over the world as is. I have no 
objections to starting a groups.io list as was done with Yahoo years 
ago...but not at the cost of this list.
