Thank you for all the responses. I can¡¯t test this but am asking ¡ª I have this setting in all the subgroups. However since I am a member of all the subgroups, I only see the heading ¡°subgroups you belong to¡±. Since I am the owner of all the subgroups, I see all of them.
Do people who are members of only a few subgroups see another heading such as ¡°subgroups available¡± or ¡°subgroups you are not a member of¡±?
To check this myself I have to transfer ownership and don¡¯t have time to do that right now.

Keep your existing address as the Owner and invite yourself as a new member using a different email address.? The other email address will just be a normal membership so you can see what normal subscribers see. You will either have to log out and log in to change accounts, or you can use a different browser and be logged in on both accounts at the same time. ? -- Gerald

transferring from yahoo best practices
I've created a new group and requested the group info at yahoo be transferred.
?
The instructions page for yahoo transfers ( /yahootransfer) says the following in the notes
- Unless you specify otherwise, we will send a notice to every member telling them about the transfer.
- If you have created a customized welcome message for your group, we will also send that to each member who is not already a member of the new group.
I understand from an email I received that if some messages or content is not transferred that will be noted in the email confirming the transfer is complete.? I'd like to be able to look at that info before I have the welcome message sent. So my questions are:?
1) for the first bullet?point above, how do I specify for GIO NOT to send a notice to every member? and?
2) If the Welcome message is not active at the time of the transfer, does that mean it will not be sent?? And if so, then how is it best to send a welcome message when I am ready?
?

Are you over quota? Go to those subgroups and check Admin>Usage. Bruce

I can see subgroups from Your Subscriptions. (Your Groups). Also in Feed. Click on Groups.io (top left) when logged in. Feed comes first.? Your Groups comes second (default view from Your Groups, Manage your subscriptions (bottom of the list.)

Anyone else having trouble with their member notices?? I'm the owner of 3 groups and for some reason on all 3 I'm having trouble getting the member notices to make sense. If i change one (such as welcome) it seems to apply the changes to the others (such as goodbye etc). Now I've got no member notices and when i try to Add it just doesn't stick. This trouble seems to have started in the last month or so. Any suggestions?? Many thanks, Barb

Re: Unable to reply to just the sender
I think Bruce is right, it's weird.? I'm on one .io group on both yahoo mail and gmail.? When I click reply to sender in yahoo, it works, the sender's name goes in the to box like it's supposed to.? but not on gmail.? But on yahoo group? posts, it worked in gmail.? so who knows.

I am logged in. I am in GMF. I click on Reply to your email. I type my reply. Then I scroll down and choose the green Reply to Group or click on Private (white button, bottom right) to send just to the author. If you don't see the Private button below the text box (for writing), then you don't have your group set up to allow replies to the sender. (I think someone mentioned this earlier.) Go to Admin, Settings, scroll down to Message Policies. Untick Remove Other Reply Options
Removes links on the website and digest to reply options other than your selected Reply To option.
I won't tackle reply from your email. I use the footers. Sometimes I click on Reply in my Apple Mail program. It goes to the right place - the group.

Terri -- That's very peculiar. I have no explanation, other than to say that doesn't happen here. What should occur is that the button at lower left (which is used to actually send the reply) toggles between a green "Reply to Group" button and a blue "Reply to Sender" button with each click of the "Private" button.

The footer reply link is a fairly straightforward mailto:. Whether such a link opens in a new window depends on the settings of your PC/email client. Bruce
