Just Curious - Receiving your own posts in Gmail
|
Donald, I see you have a Gmail account, and there is a setting in Gmail that ?I keep reading this rumor, but so far no one has ever managed to show me a Gmail setting or use case that actually lets me see my own messages returned. I am not sure where that setting is, but I set mine a long time ago to ?There is the My Posts setting in the ?Preferences page of your Groups.io account. When checked it implements a work-around to Gmail's "feature" - replaces the Message ID of messages you posted when they are addressed back to you. That makes it no longer "the same message" in Gmail's algorithms. But IIRC that checkbox is on by default, so that shouldn't be an issue for people who've never seen it. ?Shal ? -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |

Joseph,
Yes that’s Xbox is on by default, however, if you’re wanting to receive postings from other mailing list, that are not associated with this website, if you put the word recent before the email address in your email client, that will also help you receive your own postings.I used that for many years with Yahoo Groups to no avail. I used POP3 protocol with Eudora Classic and with Thunderbird and had recent in the address field: no joy. Nor of course on Gmail's web interface. I know I was using "recent" correctly because I could retrieve the same messages from multiple computers - which is the real feature enabled by "recent". Every suggestion I've tried has always turned out to be a misunderstanding of one kind or another, and the person suggesting it wasn't actually seeing the message as returned from the group - with the group's footers (and possibly edits by a moderator). They were seeing the copy they sent to the group, or they were actually sending the message from a different address, or from the Group's interface, or something. Anyway, I've set that all behind me. I simply don't use Gmail with mailing lists - except Groups.io due to the work-around. I've read that there are other list services that replace the Message-ID field, so I could join one of those with my Gmail address if I happened upon it. Even now, with Groups.io, I have to keep a second address subscribed to groups I moderate/own set up to receive +owner messages. Because if I happen to reply to a +owner message with CC to +owner (which I habitually do so that the other mods will see my reply) I won't get that reply back in my Gmail account. Apparently Groups.io doesn't catch that case. Hm... Maybe I should write that up as a suggestion for beta.
