That would give you want you want, I believe. There has been discussions about forcing HTML for all your subscribers.

I do like Force HTML because I think the footers work well.

Re: Stop Reply All sending to Sender AND Group?
Hi Frances - thanks - looks like you've nailed it. I changed the preferences for the group to force HTML emails and I am now getting the footer I expected (critical for my application as I want to make it easy for people to reply to the sender rather than the whole group if they want to).
Is there any downside to forcing HTML emails? Thanks, Richard |
Re: Stop Reply All sending to Sender AND Group?
Sorry - let's try again - maybe it doesn't like the urls. The footer is either like this:
Or basically the same but with the urls fully expanded and looking horrible (same email client, same email account, same thread). And then once I got this (which is what I thought it should be): View/Reply Online (#20) | Reply To Group | Reply To Sender | Mute This Topic | New Topic

Your Subscription | Contact Group Owner | Unsubscribe [email address]

And in your account preferences (top right corner on your group homepage, second menu item), what is your editor preference? Mine is HTML.

I understand the limit. ?I have cleaned my member list 2 ways.

So you're not alone. I'd been trying to delete two testing groups (which had been created more than a year ago and served their purpose), but during a month of multiple attempts, nothing happened -- the groups remained in my pull-down menu.? I wanted the testing groups gone because one of them had a name very similar to the one that I accidentally deleted, which was a fear that ultimately came true, argh! --Paula |

Is there a way for Admins to get notification when a member is in bounce status? I just came across the list while clicking around, and have a couple members who haven't been receiving our messages for a month or more. You can find the info in Admin, Members. Pull down Members button - but that info isn¡¯t pushed to owners.? The member can see in their subscription and they get an email as well as a banner notice on the group home page. It is mostly the member that needs to take action - click on a link in the email. They can also see all their bouncing in the top right Account (their name), in Recent Bounces).

To get the same look without the numbers, you'd need to format everything manually.

Owner of Group..
I am listed as the owner of the group on the group member list but do not have owner access - this is the only group I am having this problem with - am the owner of about 30 groups and am only having this problem with one of them. I also noticed, that even though I am a member of this group, it is not listed on my subscriptions list. Any idea how I can get owner access to a group I actually own? Thanks, Margery |

I am migrating to Groups.io and will be direct adding over 600 new members. Some of my current group are members are current moderators. ?Some have settings for delivery that match groups.io settings. ?I hope I can migrate the settings. Can I?Kinda. You can set email delivery at the time of Direct Add by appending the single word digest, summary or nomail after each entry. See attached screenshot. If you leave the delivery option blank, new subscribers will be assigned whatever is established in your group's Default Sub Settings (click the button at top of your Settings page). If appending the word is clumsy and hard to automate, you can change your group's Default Sub Settings to digest and add all your digest members, then change the default to individual emails and add all those people, etc. There is no way to similarly set a member's Role field. Subscribers will have to be promoted to Moderator after they've been added. Bruce |
