I've lost access to my group-owner ID. Help!?

Question

I own a Yahoo! group (Arslanta) and it has become defunct. The account I created to be the owner of the group (bellecurveeic), according to Yahoo!, no longer exists. However, it is still listed as the owner of the group, and the only account through which I may delete the group! Thus the group is orphaned! Help! (Also, the owner email is defunct as well, so I can't do any kind of reactivating through that email.)

Answer 1

disabled accounts will still show in any group- so do bouncing accounts that were deleted. just because it shows there in the list means nothing. if it was recently disabled, there is a slight hope Yahoo can reinstate it, but that is a slim chance.

worth a try tho

if they cant reinstate it, you're simply out of luck, I'm sorry.
