Re: delay in receiving special notices?

 

I posted a message today at 3:33pm. I can see it in groups.io and received it in my protonmail but it has not shown up for anyone with a comcast account. Last time there was a delay that appears simiiar to this,? it took comcast about a day to send in message. will check on gmail members.

You can ban someone as described in the Owner's Manual.? If your groups have restricted membership you can also choose whether to allow posts from members or not. Posts from non-members will be held for moderation so you can filter them out that way.? This is also covered in the Owner's Manual.? Each group is a separate entity so you need to apply changes to each one.

I would support multigroup bans if and only if the multiple groups were limited to those run by the same admin. What I would very much not want to see is admins having the ability to ban people from groups they do not administer.

Best,

Glenn

Click on your account icon (upper right of the blue Groups.io ribbon) then Settings and Bounces, it should list the reasons for getting bounced, see what those are, I'm also curious as Gmail doesn't bounce often.

Cheers,

Re: My account keeps on bouncing

 

As a volunteer moderator of this peer-to-peer help group, I tried to look at your account. However a surprise to me - you are using Gmail and that doesn't often bounce. And no activity except joining and this message.

Have you got two accounts now? You just joined GMF earlier this evening.

But it keeps reoccurring.

I have reused this link several times and got the emails posted.

I would like a proper fix though !

Advice appreciated.


Re: Files upload notification

 

Thanks for your explanation Andy. I am sure it is working as designed. Previously I did not receive a notice when I uploaded a file but I was not aware of the email delivery history option for individual members. All is OK. Thanks.

Correct. For me it is a distinction without a difference.

but personally, since GIO is an email-based ecosystem primarily, even if I have the copy of what I sent I also I want to get a copy of what GIO sent out and others got, I've caught different types of (both admin and regular member and both test and production) errors or problems that way which I would have more than likely missed otherwise. Think of it as "post-release QA", the Sent folder copy is the book manuscript you supplied to the publisher, and the Inbox folder copy the published book of yours.

For the few cases where I think this may be an issue, I can always visit the website to see the outbound version. Getting a copy of every single email I send is, IMO, overkill for this.

Glenn

I've added it as an attachment instead of inline, perhaps that will help.

It does help as and attachments in cases like this are preferred as it gives us the image at 100% right there in local/online message view without having to save it first or copy & paste and view outside the email client or online view.? When an image is inserted inline GIO will resize it to display only 640x480. (IIRC)


My question would be why wouldn't you want a copy of your own posts?

Because I already have one, in my sent box, as others described earlier.


Technically this is not 100% accurate.? What you do have is a copy of what you sent to the group or how it looks to you, but not a copy of what GIO sent out on your behalf and others received and how it looks to them, and as such it may not be exactly the same and I'm not referring to just the added footers, group tag, etc. Case in point your initial Tbird filter post, it looks fine in your Sent folder but that's not 100% the same as GIO sent it out and viewed by members in their email client or online.

Now I guess most people don't mind this subtle distinction and that's fine, but personally, since GIO is an email-based ecosystem primarily, even if I have the copy of what I sent I also I want to get a copy of what GIO sent out and others got, I've caught different types of (both admin and regular member and both test and production) errors or problems that way which I would have more than likely missed otherwise.

Your black screen print is unreadable for me at least

Not that I would want to stop receiving copies of my own posts anyway so its not a problem to me

Your empathy is overwhelming.

Re: sent mail coming back

 

My guess would be the change - see??- on 5 March to rewrite date headers on passage through groups.io

Historically, and without evasive action, gmail does not show your own messages because it think you already have a copy in your mail database (in the Sent box). The date change may break this behaviour so that gmail shows its arrival.

Malcolm, maybe barking up the wrong tree.

The pattern seems to be groups that I am an admin of. It does not happen, for example, with this group.

If this is intentional, is there a way to turn it off?
