Dan,
If I interpreted your message correctly, I think the reason you're
having problems with this is that you think the users have to
opt
out of the subgroup, they don't (normally). They have to
opt-in,
unless if you already
manually added all users to the
subgroup already after you created it, which -if so- is not the best
way of doing this for a general-use subgroup; for a specific-use
subgroup like let's say board-of-directors, then yes, you would
manually add the necessary folk from the main group, but for
general-use subgroups, it's best to create it, set it up as needed,
then let the group know about it and let whoever wants to join it.
Anyway, since you want to send an
invitation I presume you
have
not added them manually already, in which case, think
of it as sending invitations from a any regular group.
Cheers,
Christos
