Odd message


 

Got a note on a group, where I am co-admin - which said go to my groups.io account settings and do something about unbouncing - didn't find such but did find this in recent bounces - 12/14 from this group (#35556 [GMF] Help with emails sent not showing up I am the moderator of the group).

This evening I don't find a message in this group with that and better yet I'm not even sure why I got such a bounce.

On 12/15 one came in for one of the groups I do manage - but best I can tell it doesn't show an email address that may have bounced?

What gives?

Tim, it is not a groups.io issue, apparently Google/gmail was/is having issues.
If you have a gmail account, you may get these bouncing messages. I got two myself today,
and had to 'unbounce' on the site 3 times!

Tim,

Got a note on a group, where I am co-admin - which said go to my
groups.io account settings and do something about unbouncing -
The notice is probably moot now. There were service disruptions at Gmail on Monday and Tuesday that caused many hundreds of users' email addresses to be put on Bouncing status.


Yesterday, after the dust settled, Groups.io reset the bouncing status on affected Gmail and Googlemail addresses.

didn't find such but did find this in recent bounces - 12/14 from this
group (#35556 [GMF] Help with emails sent not showing up I am the
moderator of the group).
GMF was rather active both days, so a message from us would have been fairly likely to be the trigger for your address to be set to Bouncing status if your Gmail address was affected by the service disruption.

On 12/15 one came in for one of the groups I do manage - but best I
can tell it doesn't show an email address that may have bounced?
I'm not sure what you mean. "One" what came in? If you get a notice that your account is bouncing then it is your address, not anyone else's, that is affected.

What gives?
/helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/additional-information/groups-io-bounce-handling

In the parlance of that page, the Gmail service disruption was causing "Hard" bounces, such that the first instance would immediately put the member's account into "Bouncing" status (Step 2).
