Yes, they do.? Every photo/attachment takes storage space, even duplicates.

After combing thru the archives and wiki I have gleamed the following from the information.? I just need to make sure my understanding is correct.
If list has one owner and that individual becomes unavailable, and no second owner exists the group is basically lost as it cannot gain new members and if moderated no messages will be processed.

If this is correct how do you go about dumping the list?

I am a moderator in the previously mentioned list but do not have privileges to control list.

I don't know if original messages that contain photos that people reply to, without stripping out the photos before replying, count towards more space used. In my case what they do, is create a? jumbled mess of redundant photos in the Emailed Photo album. Generally the first photos from the original message (if photos are attached), or the first reply to the original message that contains an attached photo, will create the blue Message button under the photo in Emailed Photos, and if clicked on allows people to jump to the discussion surrounding that photo. Every time that message with the first photo is replied too, 'without' stripping out the photo before sending, will create a duplicate picture in the Emailed Photo album. If more people replying to this message thread do not strip out the photo before sending, more photos are duplicated until the thread ends. That could amount to a whole lot off redundant pictures!

What I stay aware of as the owner and moderator of my group is the duplication of pictures/attachments in the Emailed Photo album, and I manually delete any additional pictures/attachments 'after' the first ones posted. Not only does this keep the Emailed Photo album easier to view, it also points you to the first discussion pertaining to that picture/attachment. My members are pretty good about stripping out messages, so the work of keeping that album organized and tight is pretty easy.

Hi Bruce,
we are a legacy group of now 1100 members that I migrated from yahoo in January 2018. I am hoping my problem was with Comcast and not groups.io. I’ve never had an invite to disappear into cyberspace. In the near future I’m sure I will be adding new members. We will see what happens.
Thanks for all you do.

Tagging on to the end of this debate about whether "Emailed" and "message attachments count double" toward the storage total ...

Has the issue with no way to do multiple deletions been resolved?!

Message attachments can result in doubles or more of the images because of quoted replies. In the worst case we have a member with an image in his signature. So we have hundreds of copies of that in the "Emailed" folder.

I suggest at minimum, be able to

1. Automatically delete redundant identical files - just by name & size.
2. Select multiple images with a checkbox (with a filter, I can dream) and delete them.
3. Have deletions of the "Emailed" link cause removal of the of the attachment in the message.

Sorry to state the obvious, but has that person gone to the website, searched, and then tried to join there?

Have they tried the [groupname][email protected] option?
A message to [groupname][email protected] will not prompt admission to your group.

I have not succeeded in adding a new member to our groups.io. I have tried invite, & also he emailed to the +owner without success. Help please.

There is no way to modify it.

When I put a “personalized” message in the box below it tacked on the text from the standard message. ?Is that the way it’s supposed to work???

Yes.

For legal reasons, the invitation must include certain information and give the invitee an opportunity to opt out. Groups.io cannot assume you will include that in your personalized message.

2. ?I’m using a spare email to test the invite scenarios so my process is to delete the spare email from our group and test a new scenario. ?When I do that I get a message that my spare email is already registered. ?Am I missing something?

I may be misunderstanding you, but I'll take a stab at this...

Unsubscribing from the group does not "unregister" the account. They are two separate things. To provide more details we'll need to know exactly what the error message says.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

Is it a free (Basic) group? How many members do you have?

If you're around 100 members, weird things like this can happen. It could be you were able to add this new guy for no other reason than someone else started bouncing.

I have been able to get my user subscribed. Exactly what happened is a mystery. I asked the subscriber to go to groups.io where they got a notice that “membership pending”. This name then showed up on my pending member list and I was able to approve.

I suggest you moderate the associated #cal-something hashtags. Then you can delete/modify calendar notifications as you see fit.

If I create a calendar event, and then edit it, an email notification is generated to the group. Is there a way to disable notifications on event updates? I have several recurring events that might have a minor change, e.g. meeting time or topic or location. The minor updates don't necessarily need to be sent, as I am also sending a reminder email prior to the event, which would have the most recent info.?

I am concerned that Comcast has somehow banned groups.io for this person.
We tried Requesting a subscription by using the “group name+subscribe” option and Comcast returned a “permanent error “ refusal.
any ideas?

All 3 actions I took are shown in the activity log. Still no entry in “sent invitations “

I sent an invite to the correct email. I got ones for “processed” and “sent”. I actually did this twice. The invite is not showing under “sent invitations” and the potential subscriber has received nothing.

Any clue as to why the subscriber is not receiving the invite?

Did you check Admin, Activity?

I am transferring ownership of our groups to a new admin. I would like to do this seamlessly, but they have not entered payment information and I cannot remove our payment info. How can I make sure that info is deprecated without shutting down our groups?

You can remove your own credit card information from your account at any time (/account?page=billing). Having done that, you can no longer be billed.

Assuming the new admin has the proper permissions, they can set themselves as payor using the instructions found at /helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/about-groups-io-billing/changing-the-group-s-payor? You cannot do this for them.
