subgroup messages not being sent
#messages
#notworking
I have a subgroup,?[email protected],?which does not always send out the messages that are created in the web interface. The messages do go to the group owner (this account I'm using, which is the group owner), and the user setting is to receive copies of emails, so that is working OK. But other members of the subgroup are not receiving the message.
I have a personal account in the same subgroup?<allisondan52@...>, which receives only some of the messages. I haven't been able to determine a pattern to what messages are received and what messages not. The messages do show up in the web interface for the subgroup, see first except below. If I look at the subscription for the personal account, and email delivery history, it shows as in the second excerpt, however, nothing is received in the gmail account. The message is not in spam, and does not show up in a search in my desktop mail client (Apple Mail), nor in the gmail web interface. I am not the only subgroup member that is having problems, others are as well, so I don't think it is unique to my account, though it could be unique to gmail accounts since most members use gmail. ?

Re: message from subgroup goes to parent
The 'message sent to parent' was a red herring, created by me. I had posted an identical message to our blog, which generated posted the message in our main group, with the #feed tag which I failed to notice. I am still having problems with messages in one subgroup not going out to the members, but will create a new thread to kill the red herring.

See?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/8697?for step-by-step instructions that are perhaps more detailed than those in the transfer page. With fewer groups moving now, I suspect your wait times will be considerably shorter than they were 6 months to a year ago. My main group is also for an astronomical society, and we transferred a little over a year ago. Although we do not use the Premium features, we pay for it anyway, as an investment in the future of groups.io. The service here is so much better than Y!G that there is no comparison, and we appreciate the ad-free approach found here, especially compared to the train wreck introduced with NEO. I guess you could say that we're still on our groups.io honeymoon. Regards, Bruce -- The system Help is your friend.??/static/help |

Kalee,
?
We are about to launch our first Groups.io community with a custom domain Custom domains are an Enterprise level feature. I'm not too sure how many Enterprise level users are in GMF, but hopefully one or more will chime in. Alas, I don't have an Enterprise group so I can't give you any specifics. Have a look at the help page, if you haven't already: we discovered that all messages sent to our group aliases are going to spam in Outlook ?
Outlook has been problematic for some even without the additional complication of a custom domain. It seems to particularly not like having incoming messages that claim to be From the addressee's own domain. Mark ([email protected]) has a fix for that, but you may need to ask him to put the affected member' domains on the list.
?
Our IT team will happily adjust our domain settings to authorize messages from Groups.io, but we don't know what we need to add or modify in the SPF and DMARC settings and can't find any instructions on this forum or elsewhere on the web.? ?
I'm not entirely sure (I'm not a mail admin) but I think the help page instructions may address SPF ("DNS settings"). I think the idea is to add Groups.io's outbound servers to your SPF list of allowed senders.
?
DMARC will only matter if your domain also is a mailbox provider (users send email with your domain in the header From field). In that case you likely do not want to set the reject policy for your messages - that tells receiving services to reject your user's messages if they have been passed through a traditional email service. If you do set p=reject in DMARC, then Groups.io will automatically mung (modify) the From address of your users.

Re: How to fully migrate a Yahoo group to here?
Some (not all) members had issues w/ the YahCHOO! Photos, but they transferred ok (well the newest, ran out of space with the free service). ?
Not transferring the attachments is a major P.I.T.A. because so many of the prior posts are basically useless w/o the associated pix or whatever. I have gone back to YahCHOO! and downloaded the original pix in a very few instances on an as-needed basis.? IO is miles better than before but unfortunately not bullet proof or a panecea (yet, but ever-improving.) |

Re: How to fully migrate a Yahoo group to here?
Mike, We have a members-only Yahoo group that has developed a major problem, in that we can't post or view photos on it.? The
one bit of bad news is that if you can't access your Yahoo Group's
photos, there's a good chance that the Easy Group Transfer agent won't
be able to either. So your transfer might not include your archive of
Photos. The
good news is that if the Yahoo Group's Photos section does become
available again you can re-run the transfer and select to transfer only
the Photos section. Yahoo Help shows a very large number of complaints about the photo problem, and they apparently seem totally content to not fix it. ? Yahoo Groups has been officially unsupported for a few years now. That said, the operations people over there have been fixing things like message delivery and access problems with Files and Photos, but not always promptly. ?Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Re: How to fully migrate a Yahoo group to here?
Ken,
As Duane and Bruce pointed out, there is now the requirement to pre-pay one year of Premium in order to use the Easy Group Transfer method. After that year your group can be allowed to automatically revert to Basic (free) if you decide not to extend the Premium service. If there's any value to the time and effort it will save you, then it is a very good deal. Also, it goes to support Groups.io as a product - which does not have advertising or other means of support. No ads, none of the tracking and use of your personal information that goes with advertising. OTOH, you can still DIY the transfer for free. You'll have to copy the content of your Yahoo Group yourself and upload it yourself. Downloading your Y!Group can be made easier by use of 's PG Offline product. For the members list you can invite them for free, or for one month of Premium ($10) you can use the Direct Add feature.
