Re: Email addresses


 

Why not just use a filter on your email program to direct the
messages from different groups into different folders. (i.e. a message
from this group will have the text string "[GMF]" in the subject, so I
have a filter that says if that string is present in the subject of a
message put it in a folder called "Groups.io Moderation". I have a few
other types of messages placed in that folder as well, all having to do
with moderating and running my Groups.io groups.)

Your email address is your account at Groups.io, so if you change
the email address used by your account it will change the delivery
address for all of the groups you are subscribed to, no matter which one
you thought you were changing it for. To do what I think you are
talking about you would need to join each list with a different address
and thus have 20 different accounts to keep track of. Much easier to
use just the one address and then have your mail program sort the
messages based on which group they are coming from.

I would like to split the different group topics to at least 2 different email addresses, maybe more, and so fill different folders in my email program. So far I have been able to create another account with another email address but when I try to change the one for a particular group they all go there and I have not yet found out how to separate them.

I could do that on Yahoo and even have a separate email address for each group if I wanted to. I am hoping that I have missed something that should have been obvious to me. Any advice on that would be appreciated.
