INDIVIDUAL RESPONSE BACK


Ellen Bourne
 

Today, my group is finally getting on board with Groups.io distribution list.? There was an email today to the subgroup called members.? ?When I tried along with two others to respond to sender I received the first sender that responded so as a last resort I had to respond to the entire group which I did not want to do.

Can you tell me how we could avoid that.


 

Ellen,

There was an email today to the subgroup called members. When
I tried along with two others to respond to sender ...
I don't have a clear idea of what happened.

How did you try? Using the Reply link in the group's Messages section or using your email interface?

Also, what is your group's Reply To setting (in the Message Policies section of the group's Settings page. And right under that, is the "Remove Other Reply Options" box checked?

... I received the first sender that responded ...
I don't understand what you mean by that. Could you provide more detail on what you received and how?

... so as a last resort I had to respond to the entire group which I
did not want to do.
That may relate to the settings mentioned above.

Shal someone in the group send an email to the distribution list. One member of the group responded when I went to respond and selected respond to sender the first person that responded to the email name was in the too area not the initial person who sent the email.? This also happen to someone else in the group.? He said the email went to the entire distribution list and he just wanted to respond to the initial sender

Ellen,

Shal someone in the group send an email to the distribution list. One
member of the group responded when I went to respond and selected
respond to sender the first person that responded to the email name
was in the too area not the initial person who sent the email.
I'm not a Yahoo Mail user, but this sounds like normal behavior: you are replying to the reply, not to the original poster. You may be able to correct this by selecting or opening the original message instead of the reply.

This also happen to someone else in the group. He said the email went
to the entire distribution list and he just wanted to respond to the
initial sender
This may relate to your group's Reply To setting. If it is set to "Group" that is is the default behavior. See also my answer here:
