Re: reply to sender/group
Frances... In testing our test groups.io system, there are three message situations that are unfortunately inconsistent in terms of "reply to" options. Both the digests and some of the single emails have options for replying directly to Group, Sender, Mute, etc. However, many of the single reply emails have only "View/Reply online, Mute, Group Owner, and Unsubscribe". In this latter case, the user uses their email clients Reply button to reply to group, but the only way to reply to Sender in this case is to follow the online link (log-in, etc.), which is not going to go well with our membership.
My group property is set for "Group" and I have not ticked the "Remove Other Reply Options". I have been trying to figure out why some single emails have the full complement of options and others not. I can't see it. |

Changing group name while transferring from Yahoo
I noticed the other day a message on here stating groups could not have an underscore in the name. I had created my group 4 years ago, but only started the transfer process last week. We are at level 3 and wasn't sure if it would disrupt the transfer if I remove the underscore now.
I see here how to make the change, but don't want to have to start from square one in the transfer. We are 191 in the queue. Thanks, Sara |

The intro letter that people get states that they can post in the "canned" info that is sent to them, with my additional added text below stating it is announcement only, and I've made it so only moderators can post (only me) but they still think they can because of the canned text at the top of the welcome message.Bonnie -- Are you talking about the Invite, or the Welcome notice? An invitation has canned wording as you noted, and does contain an email address, but does not actually instruct anyone to post there. The default Welcome notice can be overridden by creating a custom one from scratch and making it Active. See also?/static/help#membernotices Hope this helps, Bruce |

I just setup a group and my list is an announcement group but the person who sent the message has the ability to post.Only Moderators and Owners can post to an Announcement group. Did you actually make this person a Moderator (pull down the "Role" menu), or are you instead using one of the overrides in the "Posting Privileges" section? If you did the latter, it will not work. Be sure to save any changes. Regards, Bruce |
