Re: Allow groups.io messages to be more personal

Thank you Duane, as always. The issue for me isn't privacy but a more user-friendly atmosphere. So I don't mind people I don't know joining and looking in. I'll consider your invitation suggestion, though.?

The problem is the Direct Add message, not the Welcome Message.
Final thoughts here.? Why not just invite them instead of Direct Add?? You'd still have some boilerplate in the invitation, but you can insert additional information from an Invite notice or customize further before sending.? The Invite and the Welcome would be sent separately, so possibly less annoyance.? You wouldn't even need a premium group for that.
Of course, you always have the option of going back to your personal email method.
If you're going to keep paying for the group, why not add a subgroup to allow members to discuss things?
I notice that your group isn't restricted, so anyone can join at any time.? Also, the message archive is public, so anyone can read that as well.
