Hello,

I am sure this has been answered a million times but I am below a novice at this so here it is.

Our nonprofit pickleball club started out with a gmail account that has 3 google groups to help people organize play. We have since gotten our own domain and G Suite Basic subscription. I am creating new groups in our G Suite to have everything on that account and I have figure out how to migrate contacts but not conversations.

I have tried to figure out what GYB and GAM do but it is far beyond anything near my paygrade.

I have an MBOX of the conversations from the original Google Group but I don't know what to do with it.

Thanks.

Others may know differently, but I do not believe it is possible to import / migrate conversations into a new Google Group.

It is possible to import messages from an MBOX file into a group using Jay Lee’s other tool, Got Your Back (GYB). 

See the thread on the GYB mailing list at https://groups.google.com/g/got-your-back/c/suOOgfMtMDU for some details/examples, https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back/wiki#--action-restore-group for the official docs, and 
https://groups.google.com/g/got-your-back/about for the GYB mailing list where you can get more help with GYB. 

Hope that helps,

Ian
