According to all of your settings, the messages will be sent to you, so they're either bouncing or being redirected, possibly to a spam/junk folder.? I'd check my Subscription on that group for the status of Email Delivery History, all 3 sections.? There may be a clue in there as to where the problem is happening.

Changes made to your account profile will automatically apply to each group profile, with the exception of those specific fields in each group profile that you've previously customized. After looking at the text above, it doesn't clarify if the customization will be preserved whether it was customized by the member or by a mod, so I was curious and did a quick test, and if the mod changes someone's display name or other profile setting, any changes by the member on their root GIO profile will overwrite the group profile, but if it was changed by the member themselves, it will not be overwritten ...?I learned something new today!

Re: different email settings for subgroups
#email
>>>?Seems like if I want to have my subgroups have different email settings, I have to create a new group with different email settings and not try to use a subgroup.
No, you can have the same member have different settings between subgroup(s) and the main group. ?The first time you go to the main group, admin, subgroups, and add the members to a subgroup, they will inherit that subgroup's default subscription setting, which is Single if you haven't changed it. ?Then you have to go to the subgroup in order to change the member's subscription setting (using the same route, i.e. Admin-Members), not in the main group; that may be the reason you are thinking you cannot change stuff.

That allows you to send from a different email address that is attached to your account. I used to use it for sending from my work email (unsubscribed). You don't get email into your alias email address account. Just into the subscribed address. "Note that an email alias is a POST-ONLY address. You will not receive mail at that email alias, nor can you set up an alias using an email address that is already in use as an established groups.io account."

Can we see browser usage statistics?
Hello
Can group owners see which browsers are being used by group members (in aggregate)? I'm curious to see how many users who use the web-based interface are accessing it from tablets, cellphones or computers. I know I can check to see on which platforms people were who posted, but I'm curious about visits. Thanks Samuel == For posts, if the "User-Agent:" header includes "GROUPS.IO Web Poster", you can look at the "X-Originating-Platform:" header for the browser. |
