Email Question

Darla Gibson All Messages By This Member #16457 When an email is posted to our group, the originator is not receiving a copy of the email (we moderate all messages).? Is that how it is supposed to work??? It's just a little hard because the member doesn't know if the email was actually posted or not. Thanks for the input.
Brian Vogel #16459 I do not ever recall, whether on Groups.io or other mailing lists, getting copies of messages I send to the list back in my inbox, as I sent them and don't need a copy.? E-mail is mature enough that "it went successfully" should be presumed unless you get a bounce message back. That being said, I could have sworn that there was a setting somewhere that acts quite a bit like the "BCC Me" option when you're sending a private message, but that is to make your own messages sent to the list come back to you.? ?I cannot seem to locate it at the moment, and I could be imagining things. -- Brian?-?Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1809, Build 17763?? ? ? ?*Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.* ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?~ George Santayana
Shal Farley Member Profile All Messages By This Member #16460 Darla, When an email is posted to our group, the originator is not receiving a copy of the email ... Is that how it is supposed to work??? No. Groups.io returns a member's own messages to him/her the same as others' messages. Most likely the member's email service is either diverting his/her own messages to the Spam folder, or is rejecting them, or (if it is Gmail or powered by Gmail) hiding them. Some email services think that an incoming message from one's own address is "spammy" or likely fraudulent, or (as in Gmail) unneeded because you already have the copy you sent. (we moderate all messages).? That wouldn't matter. It's just a little hard because the member doesn't know if the email was actually posted or not. ? I hate that too. It is why I won't use Gmail with most list services. Fortunately Groups.io has a workaround for the Gmail (mis)feature: in one's Account Preferences check the I always want copies of my own emails box. That won't help though in the other cases.

Brian Vogel #16462 Shal, ? ? ? ? ? ? I use Gmail, via web interface, exclusively, and it has not rejected or spam-trapped a message from groups.io in I don't know how long.? ?Some (particularly the self-BCCed ones) do get the "THIS MESSAGE MAY NOT BE FROM YOU" banner, but one learns to ignore that with ease. ? ? ? ? ? ? Not that this user shouldn't check his Spam folder, and unmark anything incorrectly classified, but after a little of that Groups.io messages land reliably in one's inbox, with a "big little warning" about something that Groups.io has tweaked that appears to originate from oneself. -- Brian?-?Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1809, Build 17763?? ? ? ?*Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.* ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?~ George Santayana

I agree, but I don't know if that's relevant to the member Darla mentioned. If she stated the member's email service I missed that.

dave w #16633 Darla Maybe you need to look at the Groups 'defaultsubsettings'; Message Selection and what choices have been made here. regards davew
