Vern, 

Does PHPBB forum software support email posting/message delivery?

That would be the key for me -- it's why I like Yahoo groups. You get a
web based forum you can go to when you want, but can read/post/reply to
messages via email. I am a member of so many groups that filtered email
is the only way I can manage it. There's no way I could (or would want)
to surf through a web-based forum just to see all new messages. Plus, I
like being able to archive messages of my choosing on my local
computer. 

If email is an option, then I have no objections to moving away from 
Yahoo.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
