Re: Anyone else experiencing missing digests?
The ISP providing their email service (for the IEEE) is Telstra, the biggest Australian ISP. Of digests 200 - 294, 271, 288 and 289 were not delivered. They also missed 1 digest on another group.io group they are on. Googling, Telstra do sometimes block certain domains.

Re: Moderation
J,
A couple quibbles: She also says (2) is not the case ...She did say that 2 is not the case. (she has checked her settings and claims the group is set to NuM(1)).That's irrelevant. Moderated and New Users Moderated are independent checkboxes - they could both be checked. And (3) can't be the case because she complains that although herThat would happen if "Unmoderate After" were left set to "Not enabled" (or if she were wrong about 1 or 2). However her opening post implies that it is set to "1 approved post". Anyway, one purpose of my screenshots is to make sure we're all talking the same language, but another is to see if that prompts anything in Elizabeth's memory (or causes double-checking) that might falsify any of the claims made so far.

Re: Moderation
Elizabeth,
Except that that doesn¡¯t explain why people I know have posted many times on the Yahoo group and are not listed as moderated on groups.io, including myself, are being moderated now. They were not being moderated on yahoo. Well, this isn't rocket science, so absent some glitch in the system we should be able to figure this out if we take it step at a time. There are two primary controls over whether a member's messages are moderated: The member's Posting Privileges, and the group's Moderated checkbox. First the Posting Privileges, found at the very bottom of each member's page in the Members list: If one of the Override's is selected that control's the member's posting. I recommend that you set the members you wish to be unmoderated to Default group policy, as shown above. I generally do not recommend that members be set to Override: not moderated, except possibly for a few highly trusted members. For those members set to Default group policy the next relevant control is the group's Moderated checkbox, found on the group's Settings page:  You want the Moderated checkbox to be unchecked, as shown, for normal circumstances in your group. If a flame war or other disturbance happens in your group you can check that box to moderate the group until the disturbance is under control. To satisfy the Spam Control criteria, at least one of the other checkboxes in this section must be checked. Generally a group would choose between Restricted Membership or New Users Moderated. That? covers normal circumstances. There are a few other cases, but those are unusual in most groups. The group may allow non-subscribers to post to the group, found just below the Spam Control section in the group's Settings page: As it says, if this is checked posts from email addresses not listed in the Members list are always moderated, regardless of other settings. If unchecked those messages are rejected. A moderator may set a particular topic to be moderated, this is found in the More menu under any message in the topic:  This is a handy way of quelling an out-of-control topic, or one that is likely to generate controversy, without resorting to moderation for all messages (the Moderated checkbox, described above). Such topics are marked with that gavel icon, as J described. Finally (I think), a moderator can create or edit a Hashtag to have it cause messages in a topic with that hashtag to be moderated, this is found on the Edit Hashtag page: It can be handy to have such a hashtag in the group. It allows someone who knows that the topic they wish to post might be controversial to cause their first post in the topic to be moderated. That gives moderators a pre-emptive ability to approve or reject the topic even when the posting member is not normally moderated.

Re: I would like new members who have been approved to be able to post messages immediately without further approval.
Mike,
?? It won't let me uncheck the box? "New users moderated".? ?I have set it to unmoderated after 1 msg.? There is no option to set it to zero. Uncheck New users moderated altogether. ? Unfortunately you're copy/paste didn't show the state of the checkboxes, but note the text at the bottom of the Spam section:
Which means you'll need to check Restricted Membership to satisfy the Spam Control criteria. That would seem to be ok given that your subject text says? "...members who have been approved..." Don't forget the blue Update Group button at the bottom after you make the changes.

Re: Importing Facebook Group info and membership list
#importingdata
I'll actually stay with facebook as I c care less. In fact I'm surprised this didn't happen sooner.?Anyway I have over 2000 people ?my facebook, some of which are family about 500 of them and some are people I network with so leaving for me is not an option, besides I really don't give a care what happens to my data, it's ?all being ?mined and is all out there ?anyway ?and who ever finds it can easily look.
?
But what the person is asking I don't think can be done, unless you do it by hand which would suck big time.

Re: $$ Contributions
There's an item on the TODO list to allow charges via your group, , but no telling when that might happen.? For our club, I use Paypal, but another service might work better for you.

Re: FW: Permanent Error
Looks to me like it was rejected by comcast, according to the details, so never got to groups.io

Re: merging two groups (revisited)
I don't see why not.? There have been reports of merging Y! groups here with no problems.? The order of the messages may leave a bit to desire because of the time lag, but they should be there.

Re: I got unsubscribed!
One additional bit of information before you tun into it.? The 30 day login is per device.? If you log in using your computer, it will stay for 30 days unless you log out.? If you log in on your phone or another computer a few days later, that login won't expire until 30 days from that date, but the first computer will log you out after it's original 30 days.
