The post about an Elna yahoo group was made in 2013. Many groups from then have migrated to facebook like Bkay suggests.

Many of the Yahoo groups have also migrated to Groups.io, similar interface without all the Yahoo hiccups.

Yes, many Yahoo Groups are no longer there, migrated elsewhere, or whatever else happened. However, https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/...gmachines/info is there and while not very active has had some recent activity. I just joined in September after getting a Grasshopper. I don't remember how long it took to get approved, but was finally approved.

I don't know the Elna naming conventions, but it may be possible the machine may use different names (Carina?).
From my understanding it was started in 2000 for a very specific Elna machine but later included other machines.

I know there was one group that I had been a member, albeit not active, for a long time that when I signed on one day and tried to reply, it took several days before it eventually posted. Evidently my message had to be moderated/approved. So patience is needed.
