moderation
I am trying to replace a restricted mailing list from a with a list at groups.io. The mentioned list has 3000+ members. The current owner of that list (neither a googlegroup nor a yahoogroup!) will not make avaiable the user email addresses. My plan is to invite all current members of the old list to the new list at groups.io by email, and by email only. But I really want to skip
- to individually approve of every new member - to individually unmoderate every new member Is there a way to make this happen on groups.io? Cheers, Dirk Hamburg, Germany |

Re: Duplicate Message Posts
No, I have not participated in any of the duplicated messages; I never replied in any form to any of them.

I have duplicate memberships in other groups.io Groups I own but under different email addresses for safety but all except my primary address membership are set to No Email. I have only one membership in GMF. The footers in the duplicate GMS messages are identical, as are the headers. Not all GMF messages are duplicated. I've expanded the headers and looked to see if there are any differences; there are not. Not every GMF message is duplicated. I don't get duplicates from any other Group than GMF or any individual email. I have seen other comments on GMF about duplicate messages but I don't remember the circumstances. It is only an annoyance; Delete works... Larry On 12/16/2019 10:53 AM, Shadow Grafix wrote:

Re: Failed transfers.....
One of the drop downs allows for membership retrieval.? BUT, you must be either an owner or moderator in a group that masks the emails to get the membership email listing into PGO ...? OR, the YG allows the emails to be displayed for the group. (this isn't the normal default setting).
Some folks who had joined used their email as their user name.? Thus, it's a no brainer to figure out. BMaverick |

Re: Duplicate Message Posts
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAre you using more than one of your own email addresses on your group? If so, you should set the non-primary addresses to ¡°no email.¡± ? I signed up three of my email addresses to a group that I just moved from Yahoogroups so that I could send from any of them. I was also getting duplicate messages, until I chose ¡°no email¡± for the ones that are not my primary address. ? Hope this helps, Best, Terry Tegnazian |
Re: Duplicate Message Posts
Larry,
?
I often receive two identical copies of GMF messages, such as the recent If you had two you could tell that from the footer: there would be two different email addresses next to the Unsubscribe link.
?

and only one registration with a password. That doesn't matter. One can still be a group member without setting a password in one's account.
?
?
The full headers of each duplicated message are identical, Weird.
?
My next diagnosis would have been to tell you to examine the raw (View Source / Show Original) headers for a duplicate pair and see where the trail of Received fields diverged. Because if your service received the message twice there would almost certainly be some difference in that topmost Received field reflecting the two separate receptions.
?
If those are all the same I can only conclude that your email interface somehow duplicated the messages.

Question about
#cal-notice
Hi -- I'm the moderator of a group that has a calendar of birthday events.? The events have no reminders set, but I checked the checkbox called "Send Notice To Group When Event Happens (tagged with #cal-notice)."
My question is: The reminder messages are sent each day at 1:00pm, Eastern Standard Time. That's my own time zone, but some of our group members are in Australia, and the day is already over for them by the time the reminders are sent. I would like to change these messages to be sent earlier in the day -- maybe at 2am Eastern Standard Time, instead of 1pm. I've looked through the configuration screens, but I don't see a way to change this. Can it be done? Relatedly: If I need to turn off these notices and set up a reminder for each event, is there a way to bulk-edit all of the events at once? There are about 120 of them, which is a lot to do individually, though not impossible. Thanks, Valerie -------------------------------------------- Valerie Mates, web developer -------------------------------------------- |

Re: Quoted post position
I use a signature on some of my IO groups.
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
If I comment above a quote, my signature nevertheless goes at the bottom of the message, under the quote.? In the future, I'll do a radical snip of the message and put that first, so my signature appears under my own words. If you don't use an automatic signature, I guess this is a toilet paper thing.

Re: Failed transfers.....
Alan,
I still haven't learned how to get the group members with theirIn PGO, in the Group menu, select "Get Members for Current Group" or "Get Members for All Groups". After they download you can export them. Only works if you moderate or own the group.
