Re: Sending Nofications and email from a Main Group to Subgroups
Patty Fletcher
I think they want to send a notification to all groups at once.

Since you wouldn't reach the sub group by emailing just the main group it seems to me you'd have to include all addresses to send out that notification. -----Original Message-----

I do have a special notice on this topic prepared and it is somewhat frustrating to have to wait for folks to resub before I can send it.

Re: Message Time Zones
#timezone
I think this is a side effect of the new date/time formatting.? I? tried it on another group that uses a different time zone and have the same situation.? According to the Settings page, the group setting for Default Timezone should be "Used for displaying dates on the website.", unless changed by a member, so I'd think it would apply here as well.? It seems to be a bug that slipped in, so I'd report it in the thread .? Normally it should go to [email protected], but since this is a 'new' feature, I don't think it would be a problem to use the thread.

Dear all,
A couple of weeks ago I aborted my first attempt to move a yahoogroup to io because nothing seemed to happen. Now, with my second attempt, on entering the same yahoogroup name as in the first attempt, I'm confronted with an error message. What can I do to solve this. Does someone at io have to 'reset' something before I can start again? The error message on entering the yahoogroup name (a valid name of an existing group) was:That is not a valid Yahoo Group. |

As far as I can see it isn't a question of "Settings" being out of kilter, so it may be better to report it on beta, but before I do I would be keen to know if anyone else is seeing this, and has perhaps reported it themselves.

Re: Message Time Zones

On a similar vain. It appears that when you 'blockquote' in your reply from an existing message, the header of the blockquote as well as showing the originator shows the time in Pacific time?, even though tour Site is set for UTC (GMT+1). All messages show the correct time. Is there something I need to set-up to overcome this?
Thanks Jack(;>J |
Re: Automatic Unsubscribes?
Patty,
If we had the ability to send a group email to all unsubbed listMaybe. Groups.io could forge your address into the From field, but the receiving service can detect that the message did not in fact originate with your email provider. That can make such a message much less likely to be delivered than one that actually did originate at your service, and possibly less likely than one from Groups.io that has Groups.io in the From address. (Yahoo Groups gave mods that option, to send via the group emailGroups.io does too. I don't have a Premium group to test with, but one could probably generate the message you're after to those in the "prior" members list (whatever it is called). Except for the resume link - that would be a new feature. Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

?Hi. What you can also do, is go to that member and questions page and set the option that says that the person is not allowed to post. This means that the member will not be allowed to ?post to your group.
