Re: When I am just a member why doesn't the group I belong to show up in "My groups"
Alas I find I'm not capable of doing this. I can't join as I am because it's said I already am a member. When I hit unsubscribe on their email, I don't know what to do next and anyway it would come from my present address not the?older address?I want to unsubscribe. So I shall have to forego going over to site unless (which I did) I save this first email and anytime I want to go there, use it. This sort of thing is par for the course for me. Thank you all anyway. Ellen |

Re: When I am just a member why doesn't the group I belong to show up in "My groups"
No I am part of the group. I reread the message and see that I am joined from an older email address I have -- it is my second address on my own groups. I don't know where to access it though unless I save this first email and ever after return to the email to access the site. Otherwise I can only email them from my gmail and it is a different address or secondary one from my gmail. Can someone tell me how to re-configure this group to be part of my primary gmail. Do I have to contact the owner? Ellen On Tue, May 15, 2018 at 8:26 PM, Duane <txpigeon@...> wrote: Are you sure that you actually joined the group??

Are you sure that you actually joined the group?? The archives there are public, so you could read them without being a member.? Check their home page, /g/bookerprize, and scroll down to just above Message History.? If you see a "+Join This Group" button, the email address you're signed in with isn't a member.

Re: When I am just a member why doesn't the group I belong to show up in "My groups"
No I sorry to say it doesn't. As far as I know I am subscribed to this Booker Prize group under the same address I am to my three groups. I don't see the Booker Prize group unless I click on this email I've been sent.

No, no, no. They were deleted by Yahoo years ago. Yahoo just decided one day to strip all attachments from messages.?Sorry...I thought you were talking about something that happened during the transfer. Typical Y!G behavior, though. Also are attachments sent with digests?Attachments are sent based on the user's (and the group default) subscription preferences. See "Max Attachment Size" under Subscription->Advance Preferences and also under Admin->Settings-Default Sub Settings (button at the top of the group Settings page). Bottom line is that you set a default for your group which an individual subscriber can override with their subscriber settings. I have my group(s) set to a default of 5 MB because a few ISP's will bounce messages bigger than that, which (as you might imagine) creates its own problems. The downside is that if a subscriber does send a huge attachment and it arrives to another subscriber as a link, the second one will have to log in before they can download it, and [all too often] become confused when confronted with the login page. The only impact the email delivery setting has on this (individual vs digest) is that with the digest setting attachments could accumulate over several messages. Therefore a digest is more likely to contain hyperlinks instead of the original documents if you set up any email size restriction...or get really big if you don't. Pick your poison, Bruce P.S. I'm told that GIO will forward any message up to some ridiculous number like 95 MB...so that's not likely to become a bottleneck. -- The system Help is your friend.??/static/help |

Re: Bouncing
Bob,
One of my members is bouncing and if I look at their history, I see this: The IP address is owned by Linode, apparently one of the servers leased by Groups.io. what does this mean and how can it be fixed? The message doesn't specify whether that limit is being applied per user, or to their service overall. But either way, the member should copy/paste that response code and text to their email service's tech support and explain to them that messages from that server (and Groups.io generally) are wanted and are not to be rejected. If the member can't get their service to "play nice" perhaps Mark can talk to them. So I'd escalate the issue to him if the email service ignores their customer.

But when I go over to My groups all I see are the three I am owner/moderator of, beta, group managers forum. Why do I not see the one where I am simply a member.This usually means that you are logged in under a different email address than the one subscribed to that group. In groups.io, your email address IS your user ID. There is no separate account identifier. Hope this helps, Bruce ? -- ----------------------- The system Help is your friend.??/static/help |

My ISP monitors how many people I put on an addressee list for any given message and limits it on the premise that if I insert too many I could be spamming. I didn't know it was possible to reverse this and monitor an IP address using similar criteria.? What is the domain of the receiving address? If so we may need to contact them somehow and let them know that groups.io is a provider of mailing lists and sending lots of messages is to be expected. I hope this helps, but it probably doesn't.
