Ah. That's probably it. Wonder if it's possible to make the error for these domains clearer -- something like "Blocked domain"??

Probably.? From what Mark mentioned awhile back on the beta group, he's blocking as many of the 'disposable email' domains as he can to help keep out the spammers.? He doesn't make the list available because that would help the spammers find one that they can use.

Hi -

One of my recently transferred lists from Yahoo has a member that uses xemaps.com (one of those services that maps a "disposable" address to your real address). During the transfer, her address was rejected as invalid. I've tried sending invitations, but everything to that domain seems to be marked as invalid:

• test@...: Invalid email address

Does groups.io reject mail to these services? Is there any way for her to subscribe from her address on this service? I haven't been able to find any documentation about this.

regards,
Vivian

The wiki says you search??AND, OR and NOT. You can also search for quoted phrases.
However, when I try to search a quoted phrase I'm getting posts with the individual words.

I'm wondering if something changed since this wiki went up or if it's a temporary problem.

Thanks,
Rachel

I am also still waiting. I sent the invites 5 days ago, and the status at groups.io says it received the invite.?
I was planning on a migration cutover on Dec 1st, but that seems unlikely now.?

Whatever number I plug into the Display Width box, it seems that no change has been made to any of the columns width. The size remains the same as if it was set to default zero.

There are limitations to how much adjusting can be done, due to dynamic html rendering requirements. For example, for a table entry of type "single line text," a browser may refuse to split or truncate a lengthy word, even if you make the column width shorter. So you may find that your browser refuses to render a column at a narrower width than the width of the longest word found among all the entries in that column. I hope that made sense.

Also make sure that all whitespace in table entries consist of regular spaces (ASCII 32). If you've pasted something into the table that contains html non-breaking spaces ( ), text-wrapping cannot occur there.

Perhaps most importantly, keep in mind that these Display Widths are in pixels, not characters. How things wrap will depend on both screen width and font size...what looks good on your screen may be horrible on someone else's. For that reason I recommend that you stick with the 0 defaults.

If none of this dissuades you from leaving well enough alone, it's best to play with these column settings one at a time. As a first approximation, try incrementally decreasing the width of the column you want to make narrower, while leaving the rest at zero. Once you get to the point that you like the width of this column you can then experiment with making the other one wider.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

No it won't...but you can still access the group under the old address, which will be redirected to the subdomain one.

So then I discovered that the name of the subdomain could be changed, and thought I'd make it shorter.

Now there's another problem.

I can't access the group. It says server not found.

What the heck!?

Changing the name of a group or subgroup affects nameserver table entries. You will have to wait awhile until those are updated, at which point you should be able to access the renamed subgroup.?

Hope this helps,

Should I just recreate the group over again?

That's a gmail thing that's been discussed before.? You can go to your account (upper right), then Preferences, scroll down to Email Preferences, select "I always want copies of my own emails", and click Update Preferences.? You'll end up with 2 copies of the email, the one you sent (which is what you're seeing now) and the one that comes back.? The one coming back should have the prepend.

Ilene,

After your changes to the column widths, did you scroll to the bottom of the page and click on UPDATE?

I think I figured out what is going on. If I send the email from my gmail account, it appears in my inbox without the prepend. Everyone else is getting it with the prepend so I think we are fine.?

Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the help!

I still keep getting delayed emails from my group and GMF

That's probably due to the known problem with Cox,

If you're the only owner, you shouldn't have been able to do that.? Have another owner remove the ban, rejoin, and have them promote you to owner.

Saw this before and thought I had saved it but….?

Thank you all for your help! ?I am back in business thanks to Mark. ? He got me going again and I was finally able to get into my old group and now have both groups active (one will become a back up group in case this ever happens again). ? I am a happy, happy camper. ? ?I really appreciate all you trying to help me out. ? ?Bless you all.
