Removing the email address from a post.First, you are "no mail" so you'll have to revisit this group for any answers. Second, if you haven't, you should disable Directory for the group members. "Member directory is disabled." In Privacy,?Hide Email Addresses In Archives - choose mask. In Message Policies, have the settings as reply to group. Below that, click to disable other replies if you don't want someone to reply to group members directly. And as you mentioned, in Account (top right corner) they can change their display name. It may be that you can't guarantee privacy. However if your group's archive is private (just group members only) you can't change it back to be public. That might give the group members some confidence. Also if you are accepting new members, you can create a pending subscription notice to ask for some info about them.

The system "translates" that to my time zone. The Source does not change the time for my time zone. It shows Pacific (where Groups.io is situated). Perhaps if you tell us what your problem is, someone else can chime in. Your initial question was: When someone sends a message to a group is that the time shown on the message.

Re: Avoiding storing attached photos
Ray,
? Like Bruce mentioned, moderate any messages with an attachment. :) ? I've seen some of the gmx emails with soft nudity images attached as ads.? So, moderating ANY messages with attachments is a good thing really. ? To prevent emails with attachments coming in, set the resolution to something like 488x488, it's about the size of a 3x5 card and is very small in KB size. ? Another option, create a members upload FILE section that you can moderate.? Then move the FILE to another location for read, viewing, download access only. ? These are all suggestions, some or all could be applicable to how your group wants to function. ? Bret |
