Hi All,

Is it possible to limit members from read only and prevent them from posting?

Thank You,
Rob

Please clarify - Are you saying that you wish to prevent "no mail" members from posting?
You can, of course, prevent members from using this subscription preference. I do this on all my groups.

You can make your group announcement only, which only allows owners and moderators to post.

Can you tell us what you want to achieve and why? We may be able to figure out how to use current settings or a workaround for you.

Rob,

If you mean you don't want the members to be able to post messages but only be able to read posted messages, set the group to Announcement-Only, where only admins can post messages.

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say, but I'll just guess..

As owner you definitely CAN set individual members to "override: can not post", or set the entire group to "only owners and moderators can post".

As a verbal person I object to calling the latter "announcement-group". I would call them "newsletter" for the simple reason that any group that doesn't allow discussion is an announcement-group, even if every member/subscriber can post.
