Hello
I had been evaluating Groups.io, and finding it streets ahead of anything else I started tweaking the settings to improve it before paying the money.
The next two messages, send from BT Yahoo emails, just disappeared. I wondered if the site went down frequently, or if it did not accept messages with the wrong headers? Then I sent a message from a non-BT email, and immediately got back an autoresponder message saying I had set it to an Announcement group only, and that no-one could post.
BT Yahoo simply deletes all autoresponders, you never know about them. Administrators might like to be aware of that. They are not in the spam box - I have just checked that and found subscription notifications for that account in there. BT Yahoo clearly does not learn, even slowly.
Thank you all for your help
