Yes, it can. The owner just needs to set the correct permissions for the Chat feature:

can members of my group see these current reserve?

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi - we just hit our group limit of 100 members and I had another wishing to join, so I am soliciting donations/sponsorship from my existing base. For the sake of transparency/accountability, I would like them to be able to view the group's reserve. The current reserve is at $5 dollars (my donation) and the group is still in its "free" (non premium) status.? Is there a way to allow members to view the group's current reserve and if yes, how do I as an admin enable this? Thank you in advance!

I need to update my footer on a group or two since I don't need the two separate links!

Re: Group not showing in the app #app

 

I've never used the app, so I can't address that directly, but I am a member of a group that is on an Enterprise plan and I know that I have to log into it separately from my general log in to groups.io. That is when I am logged in on my browser I can go to all of my groups except for those on the Enterprise plan. When I try to access them I'm asked to log in to them. I have a different password for those. Perhaps your situation is similar and the app can't deal with multiple passwords.

If that's it, you should lodge a complaint, with details, on .? There may be a reason for it though.? I know that you can't pay for a group using the app because the app stores demand 30% of whatever is received.

The last time something like this happened to me, it's because there were more than 20 items (in your case, groups) to display. To see the rest, I had to advance to a second page.

Just a guess,

Not at the present time.? You could request it on the .? I know there are some people using programs like PGP and that Groups.io passes those through.

Hello all:
?
I've been using Groups.io for a while now and find it a very useful tool. A volunteer group is considering creating a group to ease communication, but they want to know whether Groups.io provides secure messaging like Signal.

Is this an option??

Best,

That says to me that the service hosting your email is unable to complete the DMARC process.? I only found with possible solutions, but it mentions that it may not be DMARC causing it at all.? The error is because the DMARC process has started, but can't complete because of another problem.

Multiple bounces

 

Over the past several months, I have had to unbounce my account...I will unbounce it only to have to repeat it a few days later.? In all cases, the error message is:
?
mxa-00260502.gslb.pphosted.com: 451 4.7.5 Temporary error evaluating DMARC policy

Re: Is it possible for one member to block messages from certain other specific members?

 

Of course most email clients offer on the recipient's end the ability to trash incoming emails based on any number of criteria.

Re: Muting a Person
?
I've often wanted this, but there are many practical difficulties.
?
You can always set up a rule or filter so the offender's messages are rerouted to the bit-bucket. Detailed instructions for this depend on how you read your mail, but just about any mail client should have this capability.
?
Currently, the same cannot be done when reading messages in the online message archive, and how such a thing could be implemented is far from clear.
?
Within a group environment, such efforts often prove futile, given that someone else might quote (or respond in some fashion) to something the person you're trying to block has said.?

Re: Is it possible for one member to block messages from certain other specific members?

 

Your mail client probably allows you to create a rule that will send mail from a species user to trash.?
