Re: Downgrading a group
Chris D, The only person who might care, in a constructive sense, does not monitor GMF. I'd suggest a message to support to see if there is any hope for a "grace period" or waiver for your situation,

Re: Additional Owner
Bruce, If he was a group member already when you promoted him to owner, the change should take effect pretty-much immediately. ?Part of being an owner is you can see & access everything so he doesn't

Re: Upgrad then Downgrade
Ken, />>> I like Christos' idea. Will the monthly fee cover the new group creation plus give a "donation"?/ Although I'm sure there is some financial cost to putting that 20GB aside for the group,

Re: Non-member spam-bombing of our group #spam-bombing #howto
