If you are on a 'per member' plan, bouncing members don't count towards that for billing purposes.?

?Are these dead emails or does that just mean they bounced at one time or another?

They bounced at some point and the process to get there is covered in the Owner's Manual.? Bouncing refers to email delivery so it's perfectly possible for the member to still read messages online.

I'm curious how to address these?? Should I do the 'bounce probe' option?? What does that do exactly?

There's a section in the Owner's Manual about handling bouncing members too.? There's also a page in the GMF Wiki on that.

I included a link to the Beta Group. ?

Your anomaly is something it might be worthwhile to bring up tp Mark, Groups.io owner, on the Beta forum so that he is aware of it.?

I'm not sure what you mean?

Thank you, Duane. I contacted the member from my personal address explaining the whole thing, but I also suggested he sign up with a different account.
Best,

Why were they still able to delete things?

Members can ALWAYS delete any messages they've posted, regardless of group settings.? (If it happens to be the only message in a topic, the topic is also deleted.)? With the setting you have, they can't EDIT them.

He could contact his email provider and make them remove Groups.io from the spam list they use.? Until they do, he'll never get anything from the site.

Hi there,

One of my group’s members was able to delete a message and topic. I thought I prevented this by checking Messaging Policies > Disable Editing Messages. The line under this option says, “Don’t allow members to edit their own messages.”

Why were they still able to delete things?

Thanks,
Steven

I recently removed a member because his account (on free.fr domain) continued to be in hard bounce in spite of several bounce probes.

He applied to the group again, saying that he doesn't understand why he had been removed from the group.
In the pending members page his account still has a red B next to it. The reason is: "Bounced 07.03.2022: mx1.free.fr: 550 spam detected".
His account isn't included in the group bouncing members' list (I think because he is no longer an actual member of the group, right?).

Now, what can/should I do? If his account is in hard bounce, can he receive mail from the owner's address?

Thank you for your help.
Marina

I found the section in Firefox for the assigning and saving cookies to use for logging into specific sites, but so far it is hit and miss if it saves it. Still working on it. After using one browser for so long, and getting use to how it works, it takes a little time to work through a new one.

I'll look at that link you offered Dave.

Thanks,
Don

Thank you for your swift reply.? I've appended my response to your original message.

-- Is this moderator on the reverification list? If so, it stands to reason she would receive two copies...one the original and one the bcc. No.
-- Were you unable to contact everyone with a single message and had to do it twice? If so, then this moderator would receive two bcc's. Yes and approximately 40% of the messages were 'qued for delivery'

Does this assist?? I'm not overly concerned hoping its a one-off.

Kind regards

This is merely a random link about cookies ON/cookies OFF:?
We may desire a curated collection of cookies to allow us to store the login for groups.io say. When there is a will, there is a way.

The login is stored as a cookie. If you disable cookies, it won't work.

I kind of gave up on Dissenter, and made Firefox my default browser. Everything works again like it should, except I haven't figured out how to get it to remember me after I have signed in yet. I'm working on it.

Thanks for the advice,

Don

I’ll do some more tweaking with this browser, but maybe I will end up using another browser.

Save some effort, just go directly to Vivaldi (with it's built-in mail client in the case of the Windows version).

I’m looking for some guidance. I decided to switch away from the Microsoft Edge browser because of their use of AI, and I’m now using another browser called Dissenter that I have made my default browser. After adjusting some browser settings in Dissenter, it appeared I got every the way I like it in using Groups.io. After going through my group checking for functionality, I found some things do not work.

The Gab Dissenter browser was rife with vulnerabilities and development was abandoned three years ago. I encourage you to use something that's actively supported.
