Greetings,

1. How do I search the Calendar for words that appear in event names in calendar entries?

2. How do I duplicate a calendar entry?

TIA,
Cal

Because that's the way Mark programmed it.? Others have asked that just sending the probe without error be enough, but nothing has changed.? Besides, it's the member's email service that's causing the problem, so unless they get something changed on their end, they'll go back to bouncing.

should be a way for the Group
Owner himself unbounce the user,
p.e. just by the act of sending
the probe and it return "message
delivered without errors".

(at least for the first attempt
made by the owner, per user).

If the user wants to leave the
group, use the option to leave
instead.

I follow up to Bruce's option. There's also a link in their subscription page, if they are bouncing, and they can click on that as well. They don't necessarily have to click on the link in the email. If you get in touch with them privately, let them know of the website and the email me a login link option. That is the only way that they will see these particular options.

How long it takes to unbounce this user

Until they click on the link.? I've had some members that wait too long and the link expires so I have to send them another.? A few have never gotten back into the group.

I have a user who is "BOUNCED" I send a "bounce probe" ... hoping that this is the solution ! question: How long it takes to unbounce this user thanks ? Francois moderator [irrelevant animated signature removed]

?

A few days ago I set up the first two monthly calendar reminders for our street's group, by popular demand, to remind members when street sweeping (and ticketing) will occur.? I ran one test, which worked.? The first real reminders will go out next month.

When you say it was pointed out that the recurring feature was buggy and not recommended, it made me wonder whether that is still true and I should look for another solution.

Is the recurring feature still buggy?

Are your groups illegal, contain
top secret content or something?

Some of us (like me) have members who wish their posts to be seen only by other members. Same reason we keep our archives private rather than public.

Did you send the email from the account that you were subscribed to that group with? If you check the Activity Log for the time you sent it you may find an entry that says 'Non-member <emailaddress> attempted to send message "<subject>", via email'.

When I used to "run" some yahoo mailing lists, when I had a spammer, I did not
ban him, as that person would get a message saying he was banned and then,
often, he would rejoin the list using a different username and email address.

Instead, I put any such person on (permanent) moderation, but then I never
approved their messages. I don't think anyone that I handled that way ever
checked to see that their messages got to the list, because none ever
resubscribed.

As an aside: typically on most lists, I would not require moderation of their
first message. But, if someone violated the list rules, I would then put them
on moderation.

I'd first check the activity log to see if there's a record of it being received - or possibly rejected. Also make sure you're actually sending it from the email address that is subscribed.

I wonder if anyone here could help??? I posted a message to one of my groups - a link for a Zoom call - sent by email.?? Two days later I received several personal emails fro members saying they had not received it.? I checked online and there was no sigh of it.? So I sent it again by email, and that email never arroved either.? However there was no notification to me as sender that it had not gone through.? I have now - apparently successfully - posted the item directly to the group online.? I have also changed my email address.

Can anyone advise why this might have happened, and how I can prevent it happening again?

Does the Moderator privilege to ban a member also mean that Moderator can unban a member? Is any privilege difference required to unban vs. ban a member?

Adding myself back to the subgroup does not permit me to escalate myself back to owner.

Glenn -- This is the part I don't get. Assuming you are an Owner of the main group, you should be able to do this.

Just Direct Add yourself to the subgroup, enter that subgroup, and change your Role record. Could you be logged in with the wrong email address?

If that doesn't work please send us a screenshot (or something) to demonstrate at which point the failure occurs.

Thanks, Bruce.

You and Duane hit the nail on the head, that is, I was trying to do this from the subgroup's member list rather than from the subgroup's member's page.

So, as owner of the main group when I created each subcommittee, I made the subcommittee chair the owner of the subgroup and for the subcommittees I am not on, removed myself.....P.S. The current subgroup owner is very non-technical, which is why they are asking me to do this for them.

Can't you explain to the current subgroup owner how to make you a member and owner?

I believe I explained this in the postscript to my original email.

I can access the subgroup members list, but I cannot change the owner.

I think you're going at it wrong.? I just checked and found that I can change the Role of anyone in a subgroup where I'm just a member (also if NOT a member) because I'm an owner of the main group and have implied ownership of all subgroups.? I can even change my own Role between Member and Owner when I've joined the subgroup.? I'm doing it from the actual member's page by clicking on the row, not from action drop down on the member list.

Duane

This is the trick, many thanks, Duane.

The only clarification I would add is that one needs to click on the member's page of the subgroup, not the member's page of the main group as these are different pages.

Best,

Glenn
