Re: Moderators Email
Louise, Yes and no. No in that most email services require you to verify an email address before allowing you to use it in the From field of your messages. So with such services only moderators of the

That area was removed by Mark, at the request of many group owners. I don't remember if he plans to make it an option or not. Duane

Re: Moderators Email
I'm not sure I understand how this spoofing works, Shal, but doesn't that mean anyone else could spoof the address too and appear to be the list owner of your group? Probably unlikely to happen but

Re: Moderators Email
J, So don't do that. That is, if the OP responds and further communication is required, always send it from the (pending) members list - don't simply reply in your email. Or, use your email service to

Re: Moderators Email
But that only works for the first message. If the OP responds, then if Mark wants to respond the email will come from his own address. I really hate the way this works. There's no anonymity. It's why

Re: Moderators Email
Shal, I misread that. However, if he "sends message," I think the "from" address will be his own address. I think this was recently changed so that it no longer reads as coming from the group owner. J

J, I wasn't suggesting sending a confirmation email. That, oddly, can only be done from the buttons when you open the pending member's membership page. The two things one can do from the Actions

Re: Moderators Email
I agree. Having a separate, anonymous "moderators" email for our group has been a lifesaver. Even if you use the "send message" facility and change the "from" address to the owner address, if you

Re: Moderators Email
Shal, Did Mark B say the address is showing as NC? I thought it was just a matter of it being someone he's unfamiliar with, in which case sending a confirmation email would not address his issue. ???

Mark B, Groups.io has a feature for just this purpose. Go to the Members page of your group, and select Pending Approval. That should show a list of those who've applied but not yet been approved. Put
