I haven't tested to see whether "only display results when the poll has closed" suppresses the individual voting choices and the names of responders. I assume that it won't show since the last possibility is "do not show who responded to the poll".

Just tested. The respondents' names do not show, even for the owner!?

I see it's possible using the web interface,

That's almost certainly the best way.

but was wondering if it's possible by emailing.

Well... maybe. If the poster gets the subject line more or less completely correct and the previous post is less than 30 days old then it should thread correctly. Groups.io does its best but if the subject line is too much of a mismatch then it probably won't succeed, and the quoted figure of 30 days is a hard and fast rule; over that and it won't thread.

In your position I would recommend members to not try to play catch - up by email but to do if from the web UI.

I requested downloads from Yahoo on Oct 19 but
nothing ever happened. I have just repeated the
requests and they have been acknowledged.

Alan -
Did you check your Yahoo Mail box? I made that mistake the first time and the reply had been sitting there.

I just requested a new download in case this one gets something the last one missed.

I think the plain text in admin, settings modifies Attachments, not the messages themselves.

If you want to delete colour etc. in the message itself, tick this checkbox:

I've configured my group Messaging Formatting with only "Plain Text Only"
checks. (See attached.) This isn't working how I expected it to. A recent
message to the list [1] is showing up with HTML both on the Groups.io site
and in the copy that I received in my email. This is most obvious at the end
of the message where there is a link preview for a link to Google Groups.

I expected that by checking "Plain Text Only", that the HTML part of the
author's message would have been would have been dropped before the message
was stored in the group's archive or sent to members with email delivery
configured.

Have I misunderstood this feature? Can someone explain what it does & the
intended use?

It looks like the author of this message may have composed it in the Outlook
desktop client or with the Outlook.com web client. I can't tell from the
headers...

In the message source on Groups.io (not visible to the general public, but
at [2]), the Content-Type headers is

Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_000_AM7PR04MB688855C84D1E91BC091B6937A4560AM7PR04MB6888eurp_"

And, indeed, there are two parts, a text/plain part and a text/html part:

--_000_AM7PR04MB688855C84D1E91BC091B6937A4560AM7PR04MB6888eurp_

I requested (purchased) two transfers of Yahoo groups.

Of the first (Greendel), the Yahoo membership was 991 and 436 ended up in the IO group.? Of course I was able to download the membership from Yahoo directly.

Of the second (Delaware State Freecycle) of the 9000 some members none got transferred.? And of course Yahoo limits the easy downloads to a max of 1000.

I requested downloads from Yahoo on Oct 19 but nothing ever happened.? I have just repeated the requests and they have been acknowledged.

So I am not sure what to do now.? Would people suggest buying the PGOffline product?? It triggers all sorts of "publisher unknown" warnings on my machine.? Is there another way to capature the membership list?

Have you looked at this wiki page on options?
/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Moving-to-Groups.io
See also: ?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/26169

I am puzzled though - who did you purchase the two transfers from?

Alan -- If you want something that does this for free, I have had success with the Chrome browser add-on found at?

It is not known whether this add-on will work after Yahoo finally gets around to closing down access to group content. If I were you, I would get on top of this as soon as possible.

I've started to see some messages come through today. But not all of them.

For several years this has been an ongoing problem with a few of the members in my groups who use Spectrum/Charter. Reminiscent of Yahoo Groups, it's a problem that doesn't seem to effect all Spectrum users, effects some Spectrum users in different ways -- some of whom say they have other problems with Spectrum, while some say they don't -- sometimes seems to clear up, only to begin reoccurring. The bottom line is, the Spectrum bouncing problem never seems to go away completely.

To paraphrase, "It's broke, but they ain't fixin' it!" LOL

I have set up a group for my club and a private subgroup for the club’s officers and board of directors.? Any club member can send a message to the subgroup.

I would like to have the default message reply to option to be ‘reply to group’ with an optional ‘reply to group and sender’.? That way if the board gets a question/issue from the club member they can discuss it within the group privately and when they come to an answer respond to the sender, but also have a copy of their formal reply to the sender retained in the subgroup (for historical context).? The board members change on a yearly basis, so in order to retain confidentiality of the internal board discussion, the default reply option should be ‘reply to group.’

?

Looking at the message reply to options in the GIO web interface, I see ‘reply to group’ and an option to select the ‘private’ button which then only replies to the sender (with the option of BCC’ing the sender, but not the group).? The other option is ‘reply to group and sender’ also with the ‘private’ button, which again only replies to the sender (with the option of BCC’ing the sender, but not the group). ?In the GIO web interface I don’t see any option to modify the distribution list of the reply (yes, in an email client you can do this)

?

I thought I should check with others to see if I am missing a setting to enable this behavior, or if I should submit this as an enhancement request to the Beta group.? Seems like this would be a common use case.

?

Interesting!?

Changing reply settings to Group and Sender only gives you that one choice through the group. Not what you are looking for, I believe.


If instead the change was to add a reply choice through a dropdown menu between Reply to Group and Sender and just Reply to Group, you might inadvertently send something to the wrong people. The private subgroup discussion could go to the original writer who is not a member of the subgroup.?So if there would be choices about reply destination, it shouldn't be a dropdown menu, but another button. That would lessen the chance of such an error.
