Good day all,

We have three standard notices - "Application Pending"; "Welcome" & "Sorry you are leaving" and all are marked as Active.

On two or three occasions recently, people have applied to join our WildAx Group and despite pressing the appropriate button, they seem to have received the 'Welcome' message and, to be sure they are bone fide I have sent them the Pending notice as soon as this was known.

Am I right or - as has been known! - am I wrong?

Regards

Peter

>>Does a potential member always receive a 'Pending Notice'?

No. From the system Help:

Pending Subscription

Sent automatically to anyone who applies for membership in a restricted group. The notice marked "active" is the one sent; if no notice is active, none is sent. Some groups use this notice to ask a series of questions of applicants in support of their application; responses will go to the group owner address and be recorded in the member’s page under "+owner messages."

The way I read this, it is only sent if:

1. The group has a Member Notice of type "Pending Subscription"
2. That Member Notice is Active
3. The group has the Restricted box checked in the Spam Control settings
4. The prospective subscriber applied to join the group themselves (as opposed to you Direct Adding them or sending an Invitation)

Hope this helps,
Bruce
