Re: Default Date Order of Messages
Is there a setting to permanently change the default to NEWEST on top so I don't have to do this every time I visit? I looked through all the settings and either couldn't find it or it isn't there.--?Just click on the arrow beside Date. It sticks with whatever you left it at. There is no other setting for this.

If you want, you can CC my email address on some future messages sent to Groups.io groups, then let me know which, if any, bounced. I don't know that both copies of a CC'd message would go out from the same server, but could verify it if you also forward the bounce message to me. That would let me see what Gmail's analysis of the sending authentication has to say. Just look at the first Received Header, and compare its source to whether it succeeded or failed. This essentially duplicates Lena's efforts, right? Larry |

Okay. So this is a difference between a group that was transferred from Yahoo and one that wasn't. Re the spam settings, I sent out a lot of invites - if the "new members require approval" setting is on, does that apply to members who join via invite?I am quite sure that members who join via invite are controlled by new members are moderated if it is checked. If your group is restricted, you don't have to have that box checked. Be sure to save any changes. The Update Group button is a long way down on that page! Invites are dealt with differently in one way - if you have a pending subscription notice that is active to vet new members, those that you invite don't receive that notice. It is assumed that you have pre-approved them as the right fit for your group.

Re: How do I reply to message in Digest Mode?
In trying to reply to a message in Full Digest it says:?Do not reply to this email. To reply to a message, click the Reply link under the message.Hi Ruth, Yes, the digest has Do not reply to this email. To reply to a message, click the Reply link under the message. And when you scroll down to a message, each message should have a few reply options, including View/Reply Online. This should be there for each message: View/Reply Online | Reply To Group | Reply To Sender | Mute Topic | Top ^ | New Topic So you can read or reply online, if you prefer. Or click for that specific message and reply by your email. There might be another issue because of Outlook. Someone else might have more info. But in the meantime, hope this helps!

You must choose from among these four options. At least one of these options must be set as a spam-control measure.
?
Restricted Membership - Moderators must approve any new subscribers.
Announcement Group - Only Owners and Moderators are allowed to post.
Moderated - ALL messages are held pending moderator approval before being sent to the group.
New Users Moderated - Messages from new subscribers are held pending moderator approval. After the set number of consecutive messages are approved, the subscriber is automatically unmoderated.
If you choose Restricted only, you do not need to moderate ANY messages, if you wish. But you will have to approve new subscribers. There is no Spam Control setting that will allow a new subscriber to join your group without approval and immediately post an unmoderated message.
See this link about unmoderating everybody. /g/GroupManagersForum/message/18347 Frances ? -- FAQ on Moving from YahooGroups GMF Wiki: (unofficial) Help for members (and would-be members) and group managers |

When I click the checkbox, the check doesn't go away.From the wiki: Note: although there are many rules, the default for (almost) all of them is not to cause a message to be moderated ¡ª a group admin must enable each rule before it applies to any messages.

An exception is New Users Moderated, which is the default Spam Control setting when a group is created. Another exception occurs for group members copied in by the Easy Yahoo Group Transfer feature: those members are initially given the Posting Privilege they had in the Yahoo Group.
?You can reduce the required spam control moderation to 1 post in Admin, Settings, Spam Control. Be sure to scroll down and Update Group to make any changes stick. And this from the wiki page: How do I know who is specifically moderated?
In the members list there may be badges after the display of each member's email address; some badges relate to moderation and when present these indicate that the member has an override to the group's Moderated checkbox. See Status Badges in the Members List for a list of the badges. In a new group the NuM (New User Moderated) is the only moderation badge that is likely to appear, all of the rest must be manually assigned to the member by a group owner or moderator.
?
Note: particularly long email addresses my cause badges to be hidden by the next column (Delivery). in such cases you may need to widen the display window, or zoom out, to make the badges visible.
?
Each member's Posting Privilege setting may override the group's Moderated checkbox. See the Member Controls and Group Controls sections below for more detail.

Is there any way to transfer my group or do I need to do it manually now, even after I upgraded my group as I followed the directions? You might be lucky and Groups.io has already copied your group.?

But first: ? b) For transfers that are actually approved and in progress, see where you are in the queue: When you go to edit your transfer, if it's been submitted for transfer, you'll now see one of these 4 status lines:
**?Where N in Stage 3 is an estimate as to where you are in the queue. i.e.?Your group is about 70th in the queue right now. Stage 4 is the biggest bottleneck, as only so many groups at a time can be imported without overloading the system. There's no estimate as to how long each group takes to be imported, because each group is different (how many photos, how many messages, etc).
