I have a large email database. I have many groups which HAD specific members in them.  All the individual names have disappeared from ALL of my groups.  How can they be restored without starting over and entering them again?

    Seems to be some glitch in the platform that Microsoft is not addressing. Hope they get their act together soon

    I haven't seen any acknowledgement that they have even read this thread or know that they are working on it.

    Microsoft won't acknowledge here because these are peer-to-peer forums; users helping each other. However, I know that Microsoft is aware of this and there can be delays as mailboxes are moved to the new platform.

    That sounds hopeful ...maybe the files are not permanently lost.
