Re: Going no Mail
The easiest way is for the member to send an email to [email protected] and replace groupname with the name of your group.? (They could also use groupname+nomail, but some groups disable the no email setting.)? Then when they are ready to receive messages, they can send an email specifying which delivery method they want, probably groupname+single.? For a complete list of email commands, see /static/help#what-are-the-available-email-commands.
You can also go in and change their delivery method on their member subscription for them. Duane -- Help: /static/help GMF's Wiki: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Search button at the top of Messages list A few site FAQs: /static/pricing#frequently-asked-questions |

Re: need help please [with group address or title]
Ana, Hello there, I own a group called Angelsons, I am having a problem, when I wright to the group, the people get I'm having some difficulty understanding your problem. I can't tell if angel (a n g e l)? versus angle (a n g l e) is the problem, or merely a typo in your message. Are you using assistive technologies like a screen reader and/or voice-to-text when you read and compose messages? and I have tried to fix it but I cant find the mistake, ? In your group's Settings page, there are two fields to check. 1) Group Title. This one is intended as a short but readable text so people looking in the Groups.io directory will know what your group is about. In the angelsonges group (cited in your message sig line) the Group Title currently reads as "angelsons". That's probably too short for this purpose, and may be better if made more readable. For example, "Angel Sons" or even "Angel Sons - A Christian Group for Prayer" 2) Group Email Address. This one is used in both the group's email addresses and in its web addresses (URLs). As such it needs to be compact and without spaces (and some other punctuation marks). In your group this currently reads as "angelsonges". Note the difference in spelling - a n g e l s o n g e s instead of a n g e l s o n s. Based on your display name in this group I'm inclined to believe that you intended Sons rather than Songs. The custom part of the Group Email Address is often referred to as the group's name. Do be aware that changing the Group Email Address will have consequences for your members, so you don't want to do it more often than absolutely necessary. Read Renaming a Group for more information. and I also cant make the n show up, I don't see where an n would be missing. I do see an extra g e in your Group Email Address though, as spelled out above. I hope this helps.

Re: SPECIAL MESSAGE
In each individual's email preferences, they can choose individual messages, digest, summary, or special notices. Those who choose special notices will not receive any email that is not sent as a special notice (they may want to go into their groups.io account to read and respond to messages rather than receiving them in their personal email account). If you send something as a special notice, this assures that everyone will receive it in their email.

Re: unsubscribed member can?t get registered with same address
Shal,
And that is false. A person's subscription is to a specific group. A person's Account (email address registration) is for all groups to which the person subscribes.<Of course. That I understand. But how come I cannot see him when going to Settings >Members and put his email-address in the search field? Does that mean his subscription is gone even though he stays registered, and his account is still there, but only visible to himself? And what if someone wants his e-mail-address and consequently his registration deleted? Sorry if I pose questions which might be self-evident for technical savvies.... Victoria |

Re: unsubscribed member can?t get registered with same address
Victoria,
why can?t an unsubscribed member get registered with the sameBecause unsubscribing from your group doesn't unregister their email account from Groups.io. Even if he were not subscribed to other groups it wouldn't. When trying to register anew, a notice pops up saying ¡°thisAnd that is true. He has no need to re-register. Although it definitely is not since I as owner cannot see thisAnd that is false. A person's subscription is to a specific group. A person's Account (email address registration) is for all groups to which the person subscribes. So what do I tell thim if he does not want to create a newTell him to subscribe to your group. Either use the Join/Request button on your group's home page, or use the +subscribe email command. To use the home page buttons he'll need to Log In to Groups.io (not Sign Up, that's already done).

Re: unable to subscribe to group via invite and subscribe email

I don't think she knew the group email before, since she's notOne possibility is the group's home page. I'm sure there are others. Though really, the fact that subscribe request was sent should haveThat's to protect against the case that the +subscribe command was forged (spoofed) by a virus, spammer, or malcontent. I just sent her an email with the subscribe email CC'd, and asked herI agree, you should have. But trying that in my test group got me no bounce or other message, and no Activity log entry. Both seem wrong to me. Sounds like a bug to me. Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |
