I think that there is another one ?that should be added - You receive an invitation to join a group.

If I remember correctly, accepting the invitation also confirms the account of someone that has never had one.? Probably in there somewhere...

It works!!? The link I got earlier from Bruce just talked about setting up the locked groups notice, but did not include the part about having to lock the group itself.? Thanks so much!

Mod's note from Frances - Just an FYI, there is a hyperlink in the notice help page to locking - "when the group is locked".?Glad it worked!

Ann, did you also lock the group? I think it would happen immediately if the group is locked and the notice is activated.

Is your group actually locked?

Anyone agree with my thinking? I can send something to Beta, Docs subgroup, but if iHelp is clear to everyone else, then I won't!

The help assumes if you get an invitation, you have a Groups.io account already. It doesn't say what happens if you are new to Groups.io
/helpcenter/membersmanual/1/joining-groups

I actually tested it with a new Gmail account to see exactly what happens with an email address that is new to Groups.io.?

If someone doesn't have a Groups.io account, they receive a Welcome to Groups.io email after they reply to the invitation. It says:

Hello! It is my first time posting to this group. How do I know if my group members have a Groups.io account? We add members manually to our group and then suggest they create a Groups.io account to navigate and post. We are curious how many members do go on to create an account.

If they are on your list then they have an account, that's the way groups.io works. The real question is whether they know how to log in to the web site to access the group there. They may have an account but never have logged in - many people are content to just work by email. --?

I am having trouble in my group,

I keep getting a notification that says count change,

You will need to be more specific about the notification. Can you provide a
screen shot of it or if it's an email notification, the full text of it, please?

If it's a notification about a member changing their displayed name, you'll get
that when a member changes it, usually from a default of the member's email
address to something they want to use as a username. This was a recent change.
You can disable the notifications for that.

Hello there,


I am having trouble in my group,


I keep getting a notification that says count change,


I don't know how to salve the problem.


Can anyone help?

This person is not on my group (she used to be, but caused trouble and was removed)...

While I don't pretend to know the answer can I ask if the errant member was definitively removed or perhaps put on the Banned list.

I ask just in case someone like the person you mentioned retains their Account; it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that a change of the account email address might work its way through to an entry on a banned list.?

Considering that Groups.io is a group email service, it stands to reason (to me anyway) that they may show up in the source code of messages, as several here do.

I joined your group and used View Source from the More menu on a few of
them. The = sign at the end of a line is a continuation character that
instructs the browser to concatenate the lines.

No, that isn't a browser feature at all. "=" at the end of a line is a feature
of quoted-printable encoding, which is normally used only in email. HTML
content in email should be completely decoded before passing it to a web
browser or display engine.

An email-to-web conversion should not include URLs that are broken up in
any way. Special characters in URLs embedded within HTML content are handled
a completely different way, called "URL encoding", based on %xx escapes.

>>?Does this domain require any authentication (logging in, etc) to access these files?

That was my initial thought, but? no authentication.? They also show up on Google Images and FB/Twitter when I syndicate there.

*Something* seems to be between groups.io and my host that is blocking access.

But thanks for your time and input, this clue might very well lead to something; I'll keep trying different solutions.
