Re: Emails from New Members
Check this - in Settings, scroll down to Message Policies.
Make sure Allow Non Subscribers to Post Posts by non-subscribers will be moderated, instead of rejected.
-- This allows that specific post to be delivered to your group members. It doesn't make them a group member. Frances /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki /static/help More help: use the search button at the top of the Messages list. |

Re: Possibility to merge two email addresses?
Chromatest, Why is requesting permission to post from an email address that is not mentioned anywhere in the headers? Because a message from G* (the alias) is treated as being from B* (the subscription address). But.... what's changed?? I've been posting to the list right along and nothing has changed on my end.. Why all of a sudden am I getting moderation messages on myself? That I don't know. Things to check:
A take-away from that list is that ownership of the group has nothing to do with whether message posts are moderated. Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Re: Possibility to merge two email addresses?
I'm revisiting this because I'm getting some strange behavior. I have three primary email addresses, each from a different domain, all three able to be sent "FROM" from the same gmail login.
Earlier today, I replied to a message on a group that I own and I got a bounce/moderation message for that. The moderation message was for one of my addresses, but NOT from the one that I posted as. I deleted that message and tried a couple more times, making sure I was posting from the correct account. I was. Finally, I tried again and BCC'd a totally unrelated email address so I could look at the headers. The address in the moderation message was nowhere in the headers. More info: The group is owned by chromatest@B* _and_ chromatest@C* The gmail account I'm logged into and sending email from is chromatest@G* which is a groups.io alias of chromatest@B* The account that I'm trying to post FROM is chromatest@C* So, I'm sending an email (a reply to a post) from an email address which is a groups.io group owner using a gmail account which is a groups.io alias of another group owner account. The moderation message is requesting permission to post as chromatest@B*, which is a group owner and shouldn't be moderated. The members list shows it as owner and not NuM. So... does anybody understand what I'm saying here? Any idea how to fix it? Why is groups.io requesting permission to post from an email address that is not mentioned anywhere in the headers? Oh.. I just had an idea. The two email addresses in the header is the @C* and the @G*. The @G* is a groups.io alias to @B*, so maybe that's where it's getting it. But.... what's changed? I've been posting to the list right along and nothing has changed on my end.. Why all of a sudden am I getting moderation messages on myself? |

I did click on a link and it takes me to the Files area but the folder for the link is not there.You should be IN the folder after you click on it.? Look at the 'breadcrumb' information at the top of the page to see exactly where you are - groupname/Files/xxx/foldername.? I just tried moving some directories around using a test group and all worked well.

Re: Email delivery advanced preferences
#subscription
#suggestion
Frances,
?
I am puzzled why someone can select both Special Notices only and Advanced Preferences. ... But shouldn't that not be a possibility? ?
The Email Delivery choices only control group posts that are sent to your subscription address.
?
The Message Selection choices affect that, but also control the message filtering in your /topics home page, and hopefully one day filtered options for viewing messages in individual groups' web pages. Perhaps the text box in that section should mention the web utility these preferences have. Excluding Max Attachment Size, which is only for email. *sigh*
?
?
I seem to have a couple of people (young adept web users) who have selected both these options. ?
They may have just been testing things, or they may actually be taking advantage of the /topics home page to follow multiple groups.
?
?
As I recall, the original reaction (in beta) to the Message Selection options (and Replies) was that they would be intimidating to ordinary users. So not only were they segregated into their own section, Advanced Preferences, but that section was made a drop-open that is closed by default.
?
I could see an argument for moving Max Attachment Size out of Advanced Preferences and up in the Email Delivery section. It really seems to belong there, even if some may think it too "advanced" for novice users.
?
I don't really have a strong feeling about moving (the rest of) Advanced Preferences up ahead of Signature. There is some logic to that, though both those sections apply to posts in both email and web.
?
?
?
I think Mark would thank you for that.

Email delivery advanced preferences
#subscription
#suggestion
Hi
I am puzzled why someone can select both Special Notices only and Advanced Preferences. There is a note saying Please note: If you have selected Special Notices Only, the below preferences will not override that. But shouldn't that not be a possibility? I seem to have a couple of people (young adept web users) who have selected both these options.
And secondly, I wish that Advanced Preferences was more integrated with Email Delivery radio buttons.? Could it be moved up, before Signature, right after Email Delivery? I am asking here to test the waters and get suggestions before I post on Beta. Cheers, Frances
