You should probably read that entire thread.

When I use the raw html editor and save my work, groups.io strips many inline style definitions that I feel are totally benign. Rumor has it that groups.io itself is using this style sheet, so try applying some of the style definitions in that file to your own html and see if they work in your wiki. I personally never got around to that and am intrigued to hear your results.

Bruce?

Shal, it is now one YEAR later, and the JXA Resources page still does NOT show up in a Google search.

Any ideas?

Comes up as the second hit for me:

Don,

My group just recently experienced a large number of members who are
bouncing; /all on the same date October 10th/.

What Duane said.

Have you looked at the "Recent Bounces" on the Email Delivery History tab of those members' pages in the Members list? The bounce reason stated by their email service may be informative.

Another Interesting bit of information; Yahoo groups shows no bouncing
to the same goups.io members.

Even if those members are being sent messages from Y!Groups, their bounce tracking has been unreliable at best over the last couple of years. There are both kinds of errors: good addresses that haven't been removed from bouncing status and bad addresses that haven't been added to it.

There's also a possibility that Y!Group messages were "whitelisted" against whatever caused the the bouncing of the Groups.io messages. That's where the exact response code and text might be informative.

It might be a good Idea for Mark to contact ATT and Yahoo to see if he
can have them correct this issue.

I believe he does track deliverability issues with the various receiving services, so if that was a widespread event he's probably aware of it.

For What It's Worth I don't any members from either service listed as bouncing recently in GMF's Member Activity log, but that's a relatively small sample (10 att.net and 124 yahoo.com members).

Yes, of course. Else I would NOT get a table at all using MD code. I get a table, just without any borders.

Ken,

I believe it’s not so much what Outlook requires, as it is what the
outgoing email server (in my case imap.aol.com) wants to see.

For DMARC-related issues this is correct. Sending services can publish (via the DNS system) policy guidance that receiving services may use whenever they receive a message that has that sender's domain in the From information, yet was delivered to the receiver by some other service (such as a mailing list).

When Groups.io receives an inbound group posting it checks the published policy of the sender, and if it is "quarantine" or "reject" Groups.io rewrites the From address so that it has groups.io as the domain, in place of the sender domain. That helps to ensure that receiving members' services deliver the message to Inboxes, rather than Spam or rejecting (bouncing) them. That's because messages that are delivered by a server owned by the domain given in the From address are, generally speaking, regarded as less "spammy" than messages that are delivered by an unrelated server.

That said, Outlook and some other services have their own issues with receiving messages that have traveled through mailing lists, especially messages from their own domain. A message claiming to be from their domain that arrives from an external source (e.g. a mailing list) is automatically suspect in their eyes.

I used to use totally POP email on Outlook with my AOL addresses, ...
so switched to imap ...That’s when I noticed I couldn’t use the alias
<ken@weekendrproducts>, I must use <weekendrproducts@...

If you are talking about messages you send I think the switch from POP to IMAP was coincidental. Those protocols are only used when you fetch messages from your email service; when you post you're using SMTP in either case.

If you're talking about how you see messages you receive from the group, that's sounds odd but I suppose not impossible. I would expect your receiving service to apply the OBO rewriting regardless of whether you view the message through their web interface, a POP client, or an IMAP client.

Unless it is your client software doing the OBO rewrite. I suppose that too is possible.

Have you set your Account > Preferences, Editor Preference to Markdown?? If so, then I can't think of a reason it shouldn't work.

Loopy,

This morning I sent email to my group using a different email address
(gmail) and it still came through with 'Loopy via groups.io'

I'd have to see the entire From field from the header to understand this. My experience is that messages posted from gmail addresses don't have any rewriting of their From field.

I can understand it being the email provider in one case but in both
email providers? Other people in the group don't have these issues
...

Do you mean that you received the message and looked at it in two different email providers? it is always possible that your email provider is rewriting the From field on messages received from lists for its own reasons.

The fact that other members of your group are not having the issue tends to point a finger at your receiving email service / user interface.

i don’t know if this makes sense, is correct, clarifies, or confuses things, but it’s what I posted later in reply to the original question?


I believe it’s not so much what Outlook requires, as it is what the outgoing email server (in my case?) wants to see.

I seem to be unable to create a Markdown table that shows table/cell borders, as shown in this guide:

Here is an example:

First Header	Second Header
Content Cell	Content Cell
Content Cell	Content Cell

Also, notice how the table headers run together. How do I fix this?

<br. Any ideas/suggestions?

I seriously doubt it.? They're probably not even aware that Groups.io exists.? It's just something that seems to happen regularly with those services.? I'd say about 50% of the time, things start working again before the members go to Bounced (red) status, possibly a bit more.

Thank you,?Toby. I have used the wiki to help many people subscribe to the calendar. It works fine. Except for the Android users.?

My calendar setting is already at "Subscribers can view, moderators can edit"

I realize that cozi and google and ical will receive the same ics file and handle it differently, but I'm wondering if there is some reason why some events show up and others do not. Have we set something on those specific events to make them not appear or appear? I can't figure out what it would be since they were all entered by the same person in the same way.?

All members of my group that have tried have been able to successfully subscribe to the calendar either with google or ical... except the android users. There are a couple of them. I will check that they have settings on their end to enable sync and viewing.?

Regarding the google refresh, I had my calendar subscribed on google and ical. Both working fine. Two days ago my calendar events disappeared from google on my computer but not on my phone or on ical. I did not change anything. I tried removing the calendar and resubscribing. It appears on the left as one of my calendars but it is empty. What's going on? It was working fine a couple of days ago and I haven't changed anything?

Paige

My group just?recently?experienced a large number of members who are bouncing;?all on the same date October?10th.
The total number of bouncing members was 28.

It is most interesting that of the 28, ATT was the email service provider for 4, and 21 was to a Yahoo address.
I have noticed that ATT is still handling email sent to Yahoo addresses.

Another Interesting bit?of information; Yahoo groups shows no bouncing to the same goups.io members.

Is this a competitive?restriction by Yahoo and ATT against Groups.io?

Don Clark

It might be a good Idea for Mark to contact ATT and Yahoo to see if he can have them correct this issue.?

Paige,
There is some info here ->?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Sync-with-your-Google-Calendar
Be sure to check the visibility of your calendar in Admin -> Settings


Groups.io provides an ics file (feed.ics) via a custom URL.? The ics file contains the events in your group calendar.? What the client (user's calendar program) does with those events is the client's responsibility.
There is no mechanism for groups.io to push new/updated events to the client, the client can only poll the server to see if the feed.ics file contains new contents.? Google seems to poll daily.
I use Google calendar and an android phone (8.0.1) and can view group events on my PC and phone calendars.? Also check calendar settings to ensure that the subscribed calendar is enabled for sync and viewing (checkboxes in both cases).
Some (on google forums) have reported that the refresh is not too reliable and the only workaround I'm aware of is to remove and re-add the calendar. YMMV.
Thanks.
Toby

Non members are not allowed?access in my groups either. But all members in the group should be able to vote because the group was set up so members are unable to post to the group except for the handful that offer tag offers in the group. The other members would have nothing to offer to the group. ? ? ? ? ? ?

Look, my polls are really meaningless in the scheme of things. I am the owner and really what I say goes. I just wanted to let the members feel they had a say. ? My groups aren't as important as many of the other groups on IO Mine are more hobby?groups. Entertainment. They aren't meeting groups, business groups or important groups. Not even important to me although some of them have been in existence for over 10 years. ? They are G rated graphic groups and Tag groups. ? So what if a member votes more then once. Hopefully I have that under control to not allow Duplicate?memberships. But yes, a member can join with a completely different email and Vote twice. So be it.?In that case when a tag offer is put out they can request 2 tags?having a different name on each one.?? ? Well then a setting should be made to allow 1) ALL to Vote 2) Only members who aren't being moderated ? My poll was just to see if the members wanted me to continue playing games in the group. Ilene? ? ? ? ? ?

The group is made up of members who can't post to the group. It is a Tagging Group Tag?Offers are made in the group and members reply directly to the Tagger if they want a tag that is offered to them. The members have nothing to offer to the group except for the taggers. ? So when a poll is set up - the only way the members can vote now is if I change their posting privileges. ? "All members regardless of their posting privileges should be able to vote in a poll." You say why is that exactly? When the group is made up of members who can't post, who else would be voting if they weren't allowed to. ? In this type of group it isn't necessary for anyone else but the taggers to post to the group. ? The taggers aren't Moderators ? It isn't an announcement group only. ? ? ? ? ? ?

First from writing to support - Mark said the program was set up so members who couldn't post in a group couldn't vote. That is a given. ? Yes, the other members status is set to NP Override, not allowed to post? ? I don't want them posting to the group as they would have nothing to offer the group except spam as they will not be offering tag offers. ? Ilene ? ? ? ?
