Re: Two groups interacting when a subgroup is NOT the answer?
I'm going to have to change the subject line of this thread, clearly! A subgroup IS the answer! Thank you, both Duane and Shal. So if I understand correctly, a group CANNOT see a subgroup's archives -

Re: Easy instructions for new mdmbers to create passwords?
Shal - I just transferred a group that contains a lot of older guys. They're at least marginally computer literate, but not real sure of themselves. These are important members because these are the

Re: Two groups interacting when a subgroup is NOT the answer?
Deborah, No, not if the bird subgroup has its archive access limited to bird members. Presumably not both ways, that would mean everything posted to bird would be available to chicken. I've heard of

Re: Two groups interacting when a subgroup is NOT the answer?

Re: Two groups interacting when a subgroup is NOT the answer?
Duane, thanks for your suggestion. I had considered it, but there's the matter of the bird group's existing archives - eight years of material about swallows and bluejays, etc. We need to keep those

Re: what's up with this? "left via web," "resumed membership via web"
Duane, But the "goodbye" email doesn't include (or isn't supposed to include) a "resume membership" link. I tested it last night, and it only includes options to ?either *cancel* the resignation or

Re: Two groups interacting when a subgroup is NOT the answer?
Although it may be confusing, you could use a subgroup. The main group would be the less restrictive one (chicken), then the one with limited access (bird) would be the subgroup. You'd need to do it

Re: what's up with this? "left via web," "resumed membership via web"
I haven't tested it, but the only explanation I can think of is: 1. They accidentally left the group while on the site. 2. An email was sent (goodbye?) to let them know and it included the "resume"

Two groups interacting when a subgroup is NOT the answer?
Hi, folks. I'm new here - thrilled to be using groups.io. A group I administer needs to be able to discuss one topic with people who are not group members. So - imagine it's a group about birds. It

what's up with this? "left via web," "resumed membership via web"
Our group is restricted, meaning that membership requires approval. Sometimes we get someone who shows up in the logs as "was removed after marking a message and spam" and then "rejoined" (after being

Re: AOL truncates message titles, causing lack of threading
Yeah, that would be bad if Pegasus acted like AOL by truncating subjects, but the subject shortening happens only in the display of subjects in a folder. The actual Subject line remains intact, and
