Someone (you) posted the message, the person that received it marked it as spam, and they were removed from the group.? (Note that they marked it as spam, not that it necessarily was.)? They would have received a followup email letting them know and there's a link in it to resume membership.? If they did that before you looked, they'd still show as a member.? All covered in the site FAQ.

Member removed due to SPAM

 

Hi,? I recieved an email that a member of my group was removed from the group due to SPAM.? However, the email I got referenced? a message with title "hello and Introduction" which is my welciome message to new members.?
Here's the email I got....

This is to notify you that wolfganggries@... has been unsubscribed from your group [email protected] because message Hello and introduction! was marked as spam. Note that this may have been done by their email service provider, not by the individual member personally. They've been given a link that lets them quickly resubscribe, in case this was an error.

If you have any questions, please visit our help center.

When I checked the "activity" in the group,? I see is this......



When I look at message #1788, (below) there is noting SPAM like in it and the Poster is not the person mentioned in the emial I got.



I'm very confused here.? Who posted the culprit message?? Who reported it as SPAM?? and who was removed from the group.?

the "Wolfgang...." email does not show up in my members list
"Sanja Kelly" still shows up as a member

That's normal for anyone with an email address on a service that uses DMARC.? It also adds "via groups.io" as you can see.? Using the normal reply button in the email avoids this because the Reply-To: header has the real email address.

Thread Reply: @ sign being replaced by an = sign

 

Hello,

I have had a few members' email addresses have the "@" sign replaced by an "=" sign. It has happened to various domains (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc).?

A thread has been going on for a few weeks, and then randomly, a member sends a reply, and a bounce back email states that it is undeliverable and reveals the member's address in the error message as having an = sign rather than an @ sign. (e.g., username=yahoo.com)

The reply address displayed in the reply email is:?"User Name - Title via groups.io" <username@...>

Actually, there are at least two for automatic closing.? 7 years ago.? It was even added to the , back when Mark was using that as a note pad.

Re: Ampersand

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I haven't tried it and I don't know, but in some other situations as in coding when setting the caption or label for a control, if one is adding a single & and it doesn't show or it shows up as an underline, usually adding it inline twice as in && will fix that.

Cheers,

I think I will not bother adding this to the earlier request, because that request was from the previous owner of my group. Therefore, only one of the myriad groups appears to want the feature. Thank you for the the response.

Auto close has been asked for before, as well as auto-post, both at the , 5 years ago!? At least one other person would find it useful, so you can either add to that topic or start a new one.

Automatic Delayed Open/Close of Poll

 

I am the owner of a group that uses polls for attendance at virtual meetings 5 days of every month. I don't see anything in the documentation or the options to allow me to set up the polls ahead of time, and have the system open them on a specific day (when the #poll-notice would be sent to the members) and close on a specific day. If I missed it in the documentation, please point me in the right direction. If not, does it sound like something that would be of use to enough people to add it as a suggestion on Beta? Or does someone in this group with enough knowledge of the innards of groups.io know it would be difficult if not impossible to implement?

What if you don't do that and leave the quoted text hidden, can't you (or the mods) edit the message and delete all the extra space?? That should at least take care of the displaying part.

Re: Message with 14,989 blank pages

 

As a member of this same group (SciFiDiscussion), who while likewise online at the group's GIO site, is experiencing this infinite scroll anomaly at the bottom of the message in question and while in that thread, when I'm viewing 'messages > topics' I cannot get past the post in question nor see any of the subsequent replies to that thread ¨Cunless I revese the display order of the messages in the thread. But then after doing so I then cannot see the earlier messages to the thread (since the oldest are now the first displayed).

If I set the display to 'messages > messages' then all the posts are seen in chronological order as normal interspersed among all the other posts (as well as those not of that thread topic) as usual.

If I were the owner or moderator of the group I would just copy the text of the problem post, re-post the text from as owner moderator (on behalf of the original poster) in a new reply to the thread, and then just delete the problem post.

I would also send a note the the OP advising that this was done.

That to me would seem the simplest way to resolve the eternal scroll-down anomaly/problem with that post.

Cheers!

Thank you for the prompt reply.

Yes I created a new group. I am the owner. I cannot send invitations to join the group. I get the following banner message across the top of the invite page under the admin heading. ¡°This group has not yet been approved. Once it has been approved, you will be able to post to it.

?

I was able to upgrade the 1 month premium service. I could then direct add members. I added two email addresses, one my wife and one a friend. They both accepted and then they sent two test messages each to the group. They are listed as members and are flagged that they need to have two posts moderated before they can freely post to the group. I have sent two messages. When I login to the group there are no messages at all and nothing in the Pending section.

?

I have not changed any preferences as I am assuming that at least in the beginning, the default setting should be OK to use.

?

I hope this is a little clearer explanation of my situation.

You mean that you created a group.?

I did a merge between two email addresses but that went thru ok. I waited 7 days and paid premium for 1 month.

How did you pay for premium if you don't have a group?

I can't get any support. I can't invite members. I direct added a couple of people but their messages don't show up.

The people have to accept membership. Did you look at Activity?

I have been able to get into the account and add our group descriptions and a picture. I would hate to delete and start over and loose my one month premium payment. I don't know if an approval email got missed but I've gone over both email accounts and can't find anything. Thanks for any advice.

Have you checked that you set your preferences properly for your group??

Re: Some subscribers have issue with certain emails

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý


I just ran the test and the email was like a normal email.
Also want to mention it is not every email from the group they have an issue with but a certain type of email I post daily. See below what the email is like.
Others get it OK thru Groups.io is OK.

Unless if you're using copy and paste to create that message and some formatting code or something gets inadvertently included and is causing the problem, I don't know.?

Either way, you may want to consider sending the email as a PDF attachment instead of including everything in the email itself, that's one very long email.? Plus a PDF would guarantee it looks the same to all recipients.

Cheers,
Christos
