Frances, and Mark (in abstention),
Thanks! I had not discovered or understood that feature in the manual yet - and don't think it was available until just very recently (Thanks Mark). And it helps - just a little bit. But it only shows in the 'Members' view, and only places a small dot next to the entry. I was looking for a way for the username to arrive, as in an email, in the color of choice, similar to: Dan Sandi Bill As an owner/moderator, I can get into the member list and see the whole thing. I'm looking for a way for the members to recognize who/what 'level' is sending whatever it is that they are receiving. With the immense help of Ken Kloeber, I'm working on a Wiki (well, trying to learn enough about it to make one work). And am working on a database listing our deceased members. But I'm looking at lots of messages coming through from lots of members and knowing that some/many of them don't know anyone that's hired on since they retired - and that timeframe spans 40 years now. |

Has he tried to use the footer in a group email to log in? Has he set a password for the group or is he trying to use Email Me a Link to log in? Has he set two-factor authentication?

Re: Non-member messages without moderation?
#moderation
Bill,
Is it possible to allow select non-members to send messages to the group without going through moderation? All outsiders?Have the select non-members send to an email integration address. You can set those to be non-moderated. Shal -- Help: /helpcenter More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

I am an Owner and moderator of my group (NYC Transit Modelers Group).? I recently sent to my group an email? message with a link to a NY Post Newspaper internet-article on a subway murder in NY City.? A few days later I was notified by Groups.io that "I" was removed as a member (and thus owner-moderator) of my group because my message and link was considered "spam" !!!Joseph -- I suspect this is not the same problem that Tess is having. You were removed because you (or your provider) marked a legitimate group message as spam. Your provider then sends groups.io a notice that you don't want to receive any more messages "like this." On this basis you were removed. More information at?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/5115?and at??? This may seem extreme, but in my own experience it's not at all uncommon for someone to purposely mark a message as spam instead of trying to figure out how to unsubscribe. Again...and this is very important...no one has accused you of spamming your own group. In fact, if you had, you would not have been removed. As was previously explained to Tess, groups.io does not apply spam filters to incoming messages sent by fully vetted group members. It is up to the group owners/moderators to decide what is appropriate email traffic for their group, and deal with noncompliant members accordingly.

If you were removed automatically by Groups.io for spam, that's not your co-owner. It might have been you marking an email as spam or likely your internet provider. See?/helpcenter/membersmanual/1/working-with-group-messages/responding-to-a-you-have-been-removed If you think your co-owner did something, look at moderator activity.

Re: emails are not going to the groups
#question
That's a different matter. That's about a message you RECEIVED, not one you SENT. You flagged a message from as spam or your email provider did it on your behalf. So stopped sending you emails that you didn't want to receive until you confirmed that it was a mistake. On Thu, May 26, 2022 at 9:27 AM NY City Model Transit System, by Joseph.

How do i get IO to lift this spam block?Tess, can you tell us what you mean by "Emails with a link and or the use of BCC's are going through any of the groups I belong to nor my own group"? Are you sending to multiple groups at once? How are you using BCC? Are the links in "emails with a link" in the body of the email and is there other text as well in the email?
