Message and photo date/timestamps, wiki edits, etc are all handled in this manner. If one is changed, all of them probably should be.

Re: groups.io replies go to spam/junk folder
#spam
Raphael,
I have a group member who says thatIt is not uncommon for spam filters to treat a message that is arriving To the same address it was ostensibly sent From as spam. Spammers and viruses of old often did that (put the destination address in the From field). That's something the member will have to take up with their email interface by whatever controls it has for marking messages as "not spam" or whitelisting senders or filtering or whatever. (This has been going on since the group transferred from Yahoo GroupsIt didn't happen in the later years of Yahoo Groups due to their response to DMARC. They replace the From address in all messages - so her messages would no longer be From her, but From the group's posting address. The effect is particularly pronounced when she is replying to aI don't know why that would be. Maybe something in that member's sig line or other characteristics gets the spam filter's attention. User is a regular member of the group. email address:I don't use hotmail, so can't comment on their spam handling. Outlook for MacI also don't use Outlook. Outlook is frequently cited as a troublemaker, but it may not be to blame in this case. But that does depend on which spam filter is catching her messages - the one at hotmail, or the one inside Outlook (if it has one). *Protocol*: IMAP or SMTP of POP3 I would happily supply these ifIMAP has the advantage that the user can access the server-side Spam folder from within Outlook (not so with POP3). But client apps and email services vary as to whether spam-related actions in the client inform the server side spam filter.

Groups.io keeps track of which account is logged in by a cookie in your browser. It doesn't matter which email had the link that you clicked on. On Thu, Jul 30, 2020 at 4:03 PM ro-esp <ro-esp@...> wrote:

Multiple Reminders For A Calendar Event Show Up as Multiple Topics
Not really a big deal, but if I set up multiple reminders for a calendar event each message that is sent becomes its own topic. Is there any way to prevent that? Just live with it? Suggest to beta group? Below an image from the "Topics" view.
