First off, thank you for this awesome little app!

I successfully backed-up a user's email.
When attempting to restore to a GROUP (which is the goal), no problem with auth.
I used the following command:
gyb --action restore-group --email group...@mydomain.com --use-admin ad...@mydomain.com --local-folder "c:\GYB\GYB-GMail-...@mydomain.com

The response is:
Using backup folder c:\GYB\GYB-GMail-...@mydomain.com
Groups supports restore of messages up to 26214400

No messages appear in groups.
I have verified Conversation History is enabled. 
I have verified there are, in fact, emails in the backup.

What am I missing?  
Thanks so much in advance!

There is a limit to the ability to restore a group. You are unable to restore emails larger than  26214400.  You will have to restore to a mailbox.
