I believe the only pictures on Chat are the avatars, so it's text only.

Re: Aliases
Sharon, I need to know how aliases work ¡ª what goes in the alias field. What goes in the alias field is an alternate posting address - Groups.io will accept messages from that address as if they came from the member's subscribed address. subscription at = 334@... The simplest thing to do would be for her to change her account email address to the gmail address. Then receiving there and sending from there would work naturally. But that somewhat depends on why she has that forwarding set up in the first place:
But it is possible she has some other reason for what she is doing. In which case adding her gmail address as the alias should allow her to post from the gmail address while continuing to receive messages forwarded through her subscribed address.

Re: problem with blocked emails for mymts.net (bellmts.ca)
Harlan,
As you've determined, the problem is with the member's email service provider.? They are blocking the emails.? Sending a bounce probe will fail until the problem is resolved (analogous to "can you hear me now??"). There is a good discussion of handling bounces here ->?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Help-Mock-up#Bounce-Handling Best place to look is the member page -> Email Delivery History which will have a record of recent bounces including the error message(s) returned by the mail service provider - that's what needs to be sent to the tech support people. Thanks Toby |

Re: Reply to post sometimes results in a new topic
I'd say this one happened because the reply added the "- " in the subject line.? Any changes will start a new topic.? Some people feel like they need to 'correct' the subject line which results in a new topic.? It seems less likely to happen when replies are made on the web, but can still occur.

problem with blocked emails for mymts.net (bellmts.ca)
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI¡¯m not sure if this message should go to group help forum or group managers forum, so will start with group managers first. ? My group is comprised of about 2,030 members of which many are Canadian and use a service called mymts.net (which might actually be bellmts.ca). Most of these members are experiencing ¡®bouncing¡¯ problems. The are NOT getting the ¡®bounce probe¡¯ messages as I assume mymts.net is also blocking those bounce probes.? When they have contacted their technical support people for mymts.net that get the following message¡ªBUT since they don¡¯t have a copy of the ¡®bounced¡¯ or blocked message, they have NOTHING to send to the tech support people. ? The only indication my SSVforum members have that their messages are blocked is that all of a sudden they no longer are getting messages from [email protected]? They contact me and when I check their status I see they are in ¡®bounce mode¡¯; I send them a ¡®bounce probe¡¯, but as I indicated, they don¡¯t get it. ?
? ++++following message from mymts.net tech support++++ Can you please send a recent e-mail that would have been bounced!! Send to ? ?customerfirst.technicalsupport@...!! Thanks!! +++++end of forwarded message++++ Harlan Steinle SSV Forum ? ? ? |

Re: Pending member expiration

My take on this is that the expiration time is for the active link included in the invitation email. It is good for 14 days and expires, is no longer active, after that. However, the listing on the "Sent Invitations" page remains indefinitely. That way you can see who you invited, whether they have accepted or not, and easily resend the invitation if you wish. These can then be removed as you see fit.An Invitation and a Pending Member are two different things.? An Invited member will never become Pending, they'll just be added to the group when they accept.? As far as I can tell, an Invitation is good until you remove it (or it's accepted.)? For the situation discussed here, a Pending Member shows up for Restricted groups where joining has to be approved.? It's supposed to expire, thus disappear, after 14 days.

Re: gMail and Aliases
Sharon,
Has the member added their gmail address as an alias on their account?? This should resolve this issue. Account -> Login setting page -> Advanced settings

Paula,
It probably relates to how the image was placed into the message body. HTML (the language of formatted messages) has various options, and I've found that most email interfaces don't make it obvious which option you're using. Only one of the three options is, properly speaking, an attachment, but it is (or has been) the most commonly used option. See this message, and the one it links to.
Groups.io probably needs to change something in how it handles HTML embedded photos to let you moderate all three options. Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Where are they stored if not in Emailed PhotosAn embedded photo is stored as data within the message, not as a separate file.? BTW, I just did some testing and found that this won't work if the group is set to Plain Text Only.
