bouncing, forgot password #bouncedemails

 

Hello,

I searched but couldn't find an answer to this problem.

I have a group member whose messages have been bouncing. I asked her to log in and change her email address (she can receive messages from me, but not from Groups.io) but she replied that she can't. She forgot her password and the reset email bounces!

She did request this:
If you could forward me one of the bounced emails then I can share that with the?company that hosts our [domain].? We already?opened a ticket to fix the problem but they didn't find one!? So more info would help.
My questions:
1. Is it possible to forward her a bounced email as she requests?
2. What is the best way to resolve the problem of her not receiving emails?

Thanks!
Su


Re: A member has found a way to not copy me, Owner

 

Richard,


As Leeni said all the answers are NO.

I'm skeptical, in both cases.

So I changed the setting to the first selection, Use Group Moderation setting.
I do not know the difference between the first two choices.

Irrelevant to this concern. I've only partially completed the wiki page on Message Moderation, but the section on Member and Integration controls (paragraph under the bullet list) may help. If not, ask for clarification.

Re: renamed my main group, now I cant get to it, or sub-group via drop-down "Your Groups", top left #groupname

 

Leadership Team,

?
I think I did the same thing -- renamed my group.? And now I can't access it under either name.?
?
There are a couple possibilities. One is that the page you're using to access it is in your browser cache with the old link in it. Ctrl+F5 should fix that (if it is a Groups.io page, and not something placed on an external web site using code from the Promote page or otherwise).
?
The other applies only if you changed the subdomain name (to the right of the @ sign) of a group with subgroups. In this case it can take a while for that change to propagate through the DNS network to reach your browser.
?
?
Hoping you're right and it will come back tomorrow after admin approves the name change.??
?
I don't think there's any Groups.io approval required for name changes. Only group creation.


But the weird thing is that my yahoo calendar and iCal on iPhone are still showing me the group's calendar entries (though the times are off on full-day entries).? So that gives me hope that the group will come back.
?
Those calendars probably don't update immediately. You may need to re-connect them, I don't think there's a mechanism for them to automatically learn about a group address (name) change.
?

Leadership Team,


My all day calendar entries are showing up on other platforms as 10am the day before, carrying over into 10am the correct day.?

Mark has reported relating to the export of all day events. The interpretation of time zone information in the ICS format used may be inconsistent. This one in particular sounds similar to your issue:

  • BUGFIX: The .ics files produced for all day events could, depending on interacting timezones, be off by a day.
[]

In any case, bug reports go to [email protected], in GMF we can only offer advice and shared experience.

Database secured to Moderators and Owners

 

Hello all,

I think this can be done. I just want to make sure before doing it.

In the group I am Co-Owner, we are trying to come up with a way within Groups.io to keep a running list of the persons that insist upon deleting spam without moving it first to their inbox. We want to have a listing, along with how many times this has been done. I think, but want to find out for sure that it could be a database that would have access only to moderators and Owners.

I Thank everyone in advance for their input.

Doug

That says they're already a member of the group.? Double check the Members list.

Re: changing message settings

 

Thanks Shal,
I never use anything but "Messages" and it annoys me to find that
occasionally it has changed...

You cannot.

Mostly it remembers the view you used last, but the Your Groups page has a
hard-wired switch to Topics view. Use the Your Group drop-list instead.

My all day calendar entries are showing up on other platforms as 10am the day before, carrying over into 10am the correct day.? Both when displayed into yahoo calendar and iCal on iPhone.? All are set to EST time zone.? The repeating entries that are specific times (i.e., 9am-3pm) are showing correctly in both places.? Only the all-day entries are off.

On the groups.io site they look fine, as full day (repeating) calendar entries.


Re: GIO hack? #issue #pirate

 

Ken,

I think his email account was hacked, or his contact list accessed and
his sender address/account spoofed.
Either seems likely. Though if his contact list was accessed that implies they compromised his email account to get it.

His account shows the original mal-mail msg was posted via email, not
via the web GUI.
Which is consistent with the above.

Naturally, we don't have access to the original email (*OR DO WE???*)
You sort of do. See below.

*Q1. Is there a way someone can hack a members info to send mal-mail
thru GIO?
If someone gained access to his GIO account they would send the mal-mail via the Groups.io Web Poster. Which would limit them to sending the mal-mail to the group, or replying to another member.

There is no way for them to use access to his GIO account to get into his email account. If they got into both that could be because he foolishly used the same password for both.

*Q2. Looking at the 2 e-dresses -- am I in effect looking at two
different users/accounts - that just happens to be the same person?
Correct. From Groups.io's point of view two different subscribed email addresses are registered as different accounts, notwithstanding that the same human might log into both of them.

*Q3. Is there a way to get to the original posted email to try to
track down who and how it came to GIO and members?
If the message is in the group's Messages still, a mod/owner can access the View Source item in the More menu to get the full header. That includes the original message's header, with only a few extra fields added by Groups.io at the top.

If any member has it in their email interface they should be able to access the full header there. That will have a bunch of stuff relating to the message's journey from Groups.io to their interface at the top, but further down it will still include the records of the message's journey from the origin to Groups.io, with Received fields converted to X-Received. That should tell the story too.

changing message settings

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I¡¯ve just got a new computer and am having trouble getting a message setting to stick.

I prefer it have it set as ¡°Messages¡±, not ¡°Topics¡±, yet every few days I find that it has reverted to ¡°Topics¡±.

How can I make ¡°Messages¡± the default and have it stay that?

Thanks

Win


 

I have a member who "sent" one of those ("read the attached" type) mal-mails.?
I think his email account was hacked, or his contact list accessed and his sender address/account spoofed.
He thinks it was a hack of GIO (his account info) and whoever then sent the mal-mail to the group.

His account shows the original mal-mail msg was posted via email, not via the web GUI.?
Naturally, we don't have access to the original email (OR DO WE???) so that I could look at the header info.
Unrelated - He shows up 2x under members with 2 different addresses (*@infowest and *@gmail.)

*Q1. Is there a way someone can hack a members info to send mal-mail thru GIO?
*Q2. Looking at the 2 e-dresses -- am I in effect looking at two different users/accounts - that just happens to be the same person?
*Q3. Is there a way to get to the original posted email to try to track down who and how it came to GIO and members?

ANY other thing I haven't thought of to sort this out?

Thx
Ken


Re: Issue regarding merging of 2 accounts and owner status

 

Hi All,

Thanks for the responses. Unfortunately, the other person I thought I had set up as an admin couldnt (when they set up an account just now) do anything so I cant have saved the setting when I set them up. Before contacting support.io I thought I would just try to log in under the account I thought that was deleted after combining the two...that account was still active so I was able to log back in using those credentials and make my second account an owner and also making the other person an owner and have checked to make sure I saved the options ..so looks like all OK. Thanks for helping out.

John

Silly me, I got ahead of myself and forgot to include Duane's check:

Caused by your email provider, but you check it at Groups.io:
  • Are his messages listed as Bounced in the Email Delivery History tab of your group Subscription page?

Sorry for the convoluted email and hope you can understand what has happened and give me a way forward.
John -- As Duane stated, your only option at this point is to ask your co-owner to promote you back to owner. This is done by having him open your subscriber record (Admin>Members) and change the Role field using the pull-down menu. Be sure he clicks on the Save button at the bottom of the page when done.

In the [unlikely] event that you don't have a member record, you're going to have to re-subscribe to the group first.

If this situation should arise again, be careful to merge your accounts the other way (i.e.: into the email address that owns your group).

Bruce
