Re: Member chronic mail delivery failure
She uses Thunderbird email client.Thunderbird usually generates "User-Agent:" header line. I don't see such header line in the header you quoted. Message-Id also appears empty. Please tell her to enter the group's email addresses in the To field and your email address in the Cc field, and post (or email me Lena{}lena.kiev.ua) the header of the copy you receive entirely, unredacted. |

Hello Scott,
Anytime a message is marked as spam, and is deleted the user is removed.? This happens whether they mark the message as spam, or the email client marks the message as spam.? Provided as you say, the almost immediately get a link to click on to be reinstated.?
If they move the messages to their inbox and then delete if they want to will not cause them to be removed.

Greetings!
I have a member of my group that was removed for marking a message as spam. Actually, I've had a couple of these, and understand they get an email to resubscribe. I think the basic procedure is a great idea. The issue in this case is the member uses Yahoo for his email (as do I; they are my web host provider), and he said he did NOT mark it as spam, rather Yahoo did so on its own. I thought they would only be removed for MARKING a message spam, not when Yahoo does so automatically. Thoughts/comments? Scott /g/Lathe-List |

Re: Mesages not making it to the group
Curiouser and curiouser, said Alice.
Don; you seem to have investigated this as far as is possible, so I think now is the time for a referral to support. Your researches have been worthwhile because you now have a far more detailed picture than you had earlier and that ought to make Mark's job much easier in pinpointing the source of the trouble. Please let us know how turns turn out, including any explanation that is forthcoming. Chris |
Re: Member chronic mail delivery failure
I have one member who cannot post to groups.io at all. She keeps deliveryI suspect that the cause of the bounce is empty envelope-from: (reading confirmation) Return-Path: DKIM-Signature: (envelope-from )The email client (program) she uses generates non-standard messages and is not suitable for groups.io. Empty envelope-from is normal only for auto-replies, not human-typed messages. Ask her what she uses to send messages, likely it's some mobile app, possibly default for her uncommon smartphone, or an uncommon app. She needs to either configure it properly (which is most likely not trivial for a non-technical user) or use another app. |

We had a recent discussion here in GMF on the elaborate URL you get when you right-click on a topic in groups.io...for example, the thread I'm posting to now: /g/GroupManagersForum/topic/groups_io_site_updates/29551395?p=,,,100,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2Fsticky,,,100,2,0,29551395?

It merely collapsed the displayed text into a hyperlink with only domain info, while the actual html reference is unaltered (okay, it changed the commas and such to hexidecimal).

Re: Member chronic mail delivery failure
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYeah, I checked everything. The e-mail
address is correct. Yes, it's a subgroup in which this member
belongs, and no, her attempts to post never made it to the log. It
must be with her ISP.

Andy,
I think this week's change log is actually atOops, yes. You caught me being lazy (I generally copy the prior message as a template for the new one). I fixed it in the onsite copy. Can someone clarify what exactly this function is cleaning?That's my question as well. (see for a descriptionThank you for that, it helps clarify for me why a moderator would want to remove them - or not. I've often manually trimmed "clutter" like that from URLs just to make them shorter and easier to understand. Now I know that passing them on "gives credit" to whatever the source of the link was, should any of my members click on it in a message. That may or may not be desirable.

Re: Member chronic mail delivery failure
Bob,
I'm not a subgroup expert but the email address appears to be to aCorrect. But I would suggest it indicates that the address simply doesn't existThat does not seem to be the problem: [email protected] - from the error report [email protected] - from the subgroup's home page The change of case in the subdomain name should be harmless -- the DNS system operates in a case-insensitive fashion. So it isn't obvious how the member's service could an error based on that difference alone. 2. Is the person a member of both the main group and the subgroup?If I'm correct the member's service never made contact with Groups.io to deliver the message, so those questions haven't come into play yet. Also, Groups.io issues specific error texts "not a member" and other disqualifications. But just to double-check it makes sense to look at the subgroup's Activity Log.

Re: Member chronic mail delivery failure
Brandy,
Is it possible her ISP is blocking or not playing nice with groups.io?Possible, but it seems unlikely on the sending side, since they're allowing her to receive from the group. So this seems to me less a deliberate block as some kind of technical problem, more along the lines Bob is looking for (though the email address appears correct). His question does prompt me to ask if you've looked in the subgroup's Activity Log for any indication that Groups.io was contacted by her service. Presumably it would be one of the many "attempted to send" cases. If there is a corresponding log entry that may provide crucial information.

Re: Member chronic mail delivery failure
Shal, [email protected]? I'm not a subgroup expert but the email address appears to be to a subgroup, PrayerChatter, of cwgi, from the form used. Most of the search results for error 500 say that "It's the worst error ever to have with email". It indicates server error But I would suggest it indicates that the address simply doesn't exist in the form used in the email. This, to me brings up a couple of questions:

This appears to be a message from her email service, saying that it was unable to deliver the message to your group. I'm not sure what "(reading confirmation)" is trying to tell us, but "Please retry later" seems to imply that they'll take some action to cure the problem. That's what I was thinking, but she's saying she has no other problems posting to any other groups or to us before we moved to groups.io. Is it possible her ISP is blocking or not playing nice with groups.io? BB Brandy Brow

Re: question on constant bouncing
