Dear all,

A couple of weeks ago I aborted my first attempt to move a yahoogroup to io because nothing seemed to happen. Now, with my second attempt, on entering the same yahoogroup name as in the first attempt, I'm confronted with an error message. What can I do to solve this. Does someone at io have to 'reset' something before I can start again? The error message on entering the yahoogroup name (a valid name of an existing group) was:That is not a valid Yahoo Group.

I have been meaning to raise this for a few days. I am as certain as I can be that this feature used to work fine, but it certainly doesn't at the moment.

Like Jack I am in the UK, and his message is logged at 09:23 UK time, but in the !quote" above his message time is given as 01:23... exactly 8 hours different as Jack reported.

As far as I can see it isn't a question of "Settings" being out of kilter, so it may be better to report it on beta, but before I do I would be keen to know if anyone else is seeing this, and has perhaps reported it themselves.

On a similar vain. It appears that when you 'blockquote' in your reply from an existing message, the header of the blockquote as well as showing the originator shows the time in Pacific time?, even though tour Site is set for UTC (GMT+1). All messages show the correct time. Is there something I need to set-up to overcome this?

Thanks

Patty,

If we had the ability to send a group email to all unsubbed list
members and use our private email address, versus the group email
address ... That way, again, the message would have a much better
chance of landing in their Inbox folder.

Maybe. Groups.io could forge your address into the From field, but the receiving service can detect that the message did not in fact originate with your email provider. That can make such a message much less likely to be delivered than one that actually did originate at your service, and possibly less likely than one from Groups.io that has Groups.io in the From address.

(Yahoo Groups gave mods that option, to send via the group email
address, or your personal email address).

Groups.io does too. I don't have a Premium group to test with, but one could probably generate the message you're after to those in the "prior" members list (whatever it is called). Except for the resume link - that would be a new feature.

Kleibe,

I manage a group and have a question. How can I disable members to
delete their own post?

There is no ability to prevent a member from deleting their own content (posts, files, photos, etc.) - except gentle persuasion. That's by design.

Thank you. This is already set. But the member still can delete his own post.

This member post on the list. After while he deletes his post. I dont understand why his behavior but I want to not allow this to happen. I want to keep all messages there.

Kleibe,

If the user has Owner or Moderator privileges they may still be able to delete messages even if this setting is set. The setting is for ordinary members.

Per K&R, EOF is an INTEGER, as returned from a function call trying to read a data stream. It is traditionally -1.?

It is neither a character nor a data terminator.

Back in the 70s when I first began doing computer programming, Hollerith cards used a string of 9s as an end-of-data indicator.

I apologize to all for continuing this off-topic thread and only do so with the hope of putting an end to it.

Thanks,

<<And, it sure would be nice if Groups.io had the ability to "group
email" all auto unsubbed list members, to let them know they were auto
unsubbed due to marking the list's email as Spam, and here's the link
to be reinstated.

How would that differ from the message Groups.io already sends? That is, if this follow-up message comes from groups.io it seems no less likely to land in spam than the first one. Or do I misunderstand you?>>

Would be nice to be able to reach them all at once, and let them know why they were unsubbed, and how to resub.

Okay, that's news to me. Hopefully someone else can help.

I just stop paying attention to a thread when people do not include enough context in a response to make it understandable.

The concept is much older than that. I remember using a special EOF character
(although we didn't call it that) on a 1st generation computer, where input and
output was punched cards only. The character told the machine to stop reading
cards and switch off the card reader. Every program and most input data files
had to end with that character.

Hi,

Is there a way to where you are in a main group and you have say three sub groups
and you want to notify or email from to all four from your main group?

Thanks,

Admin->Settings->Message Policies->Disable Editing Posts.

And before you ask, there is no way to allowing editing without allowing deletion.

Hope this helps,

I'm trying to do some planning and wondered?if there Is there a way to know what the lead time on a Yahoo transfer is? ?I know a while back it was really backed up, and with the continuing?problems with Yahoo (our site is unusable for many) is it still backed up?

Peace,

Tom,

I initiated a Yahoo group transfer yesterday and the transfer was completed this evening. Admittedly, it was a group with very little content, but all the messages, members, files, photos and database content transferred over intact. It was a free account group, so no special treatment as might be seen by a paying customer.

You can do it whichever way you prefer, but you can't expect everyone else to
conform to your way of thinking (unless you own the group ;>).? We each have
our own preferred method of communicating.? On my groups, most of us tend to
read online, so not a problem for us.
