Is there any way for members to receive messages based on specific hashtags...?? My group includes both discussions and self-promotion. Same field, but two distinctly different interests.??

Hi Gilly, > One of my members is having issues with cc ing in me and a few other > members each time she posts to group. If these are replies she's posting, some email interfaces allow the user to select "Reply to all" as the default reply method. That would likely post to both the group and the original sender. She'd have to look for that setting in her email interface. > I'm pretty sure the issue is her end but I also remember seeing a > settings page regarding reply to all etc ( I don't think that's the > issue as it's just one member, but would like to be able to find it > again!) In the Message Policies section of your group's Settings page is the "Reply To" option. It can be set to one of: Group, Sender, Moderators, or Group and Sender. I agree with you though, this isn't likely the problem if it is just the one member having the issue. Shal |

David,
What I¡¯m looking for is the information found here ...Ah, I misunderstood. I¡¯m following this up because a member of a group of which I am notI don't know of anyplace a member can see those. You could suggest in beta@ that those settings be included in the list of settings shown on the group's home page. The only argument against it I can think of would be an argument against using up more screen space. Shal |
Re: Why no List-Post: header?
Drew,
Is there a reason why Groups.io does not use a List-Post header inPossibly Mark is unaware of it, or unaware of its benefits? I'd not heard of it, but found it in RFC 2369. From the abstract: "There are three other header fields described here which, although not as widely applicable, will have utility for a sufficient number of mailing lists to justify their formalization here. These are List-Post, List-Owner and List-Archive." I recommend posting this a suggestion to beta@, including the above citation for the benefit of other readers. Without the header the only option is replying to the group, or copyThat's assuming the group's Reply To setting is "Group". It may take some testing to determine if List-Post is appropriate if the group is set to Sender, Moderators, or Group and Sender. Shal |
Why no List-Post: header?
Is there a reason why Groups.io does not use a List-Post header in group messages? That header makes it a lot easier to reply privately to someone's From address rather than to the group Reply-to address. At least in Thunderbird... messages with a List-Post header causes Thunderbird to provide "Reply" as well as "Reply-to-List" options. Without the header the only option is replying to the group, or copy and pasting the From address.

Did you remember to invite [email protected] to be a member of your Yahoo group and, after acceptance, give it administrator access to everything? The system needs full access to your old group in order to copy everything over. Dano BTDT <sigh> ----- Original Message -----
On December 4th I started a new group for a replacement of the Yahoo group for the SONY shortwave radio the ICF-2010.... /g/SonyICF20102001Dusergroup I thought I sent the right email to have the files, photos and documents transferred but to date it shows nothing even though the red message shows the group will go live when the files are transferred. I was to believe this would take a few days but it has been a week. Any ideas? Also need to know the transfer of all messages if that can be done? Thanks Rod aka poikaa@... |
Re: New io group not activated
Rod,
I thought I sent the right email to have the files, photos andI think that's a sign that you sent the correct email to start the process. I was to believe this would take a few days but it has been a week.I don't know. It may be that the copy hit a snag and and Mark hasn't noticed. Or maybe the flood of transfer requests is just taking that long. You could send another email to [email protected] to express your concern. Also need to know the transfer of all messages if that can be done?I don't know if the copy process proceeds one section at a time, or in what order. I would kind of expect that messages would be second, after members. Shal |
Re: Yahoo email address contortions
Drew,
Can someone please give me a quick refresh on why a Yahoo emailIt's called DMARC. It is a protocol whereby an email sending service can tell email receiving service to reject any message that doesn't come directly from the sending servers and is not an exact copy of one was sent from them. Basically it is considered to be an anti-spoofing technology, but it has the side-effect of causing messages that go by way of mailing lists (such as Yahoo Groups or Groups.io or Mailman, or ...) to be rejected, or sent to spam. Yahoo and a few other email services have that turned on. To help ensure that messages from the afflicted members (yes, I meant it that way) are actually delivered to other group members Groups.io mangles the From address, so that the message is now From groups.io, but still contains the sender's email address so that you can untangle it if you wish. Yahoo Groups' response to the same problem is to mangle everyone's address, and much more grossly. Shal |

Re: Passwords for Migrated Members

Tim,
Our group just finished migrating today. We've had a couple of membersThey don't have one until and unless they set one. Or, they can use the "Email me a link to log in" button. That will send them a link which will take him/her to their list of groups (I think), logged in for 30 days. They need never set a password, just ask for another emailed login link when needed. This is particularly handy on mobile devices where typing or copy/pasting a strong password can be a chore. One in particular said when he asks for his password to be reset/sentIt should take him to a prompt for him to enter his email address. Then Groups.io will send an email with a link in it. The link will take him to his account page where he can set a password. Shal |
