Transferred Members Receive and Send Emails #transfer

 

When new people join a group they need to join by submitting their email address and a password, then when allowed into the group they can send emails.

When a newly Transferred member is in the Members List of their group do they also have to submit their email address and a password to email their group? I figure they have to sign in using their email address and password if they want to enter their group site, and also for Invited people to the group.

No, transferred members just need to send messages to the new group email address and not the old address. Transferred members are already part of the group and as long as they send from the email address they joined with, the system sees them as members. When the transfer occurs, members are transferred with the same posting privileges they had at Y! Unmoderated members can still post freely and those that were on moderation at Y! will still be moderated. As I recall from a discussion a couple days ago, the exception to this is that banned members are not transferred, as they are not group members. If I'm not accurate on this, I trust someone will correct this.

Those that wish to change their email address need to first log onto the web page with the email address the groups knows them as, and without a password. The scrapers have no way of discerning passwords on Y! After they are logged in they can then change their address.

And about passwords - as Dano said, these are not transferred.
Group Help tells them how to get a password -?

I Have Forgotten My Password/I Don't Have A Password
To log in without a password, go to the login page and click the 'Email me a link to log in' button. Once you enter your email address, you'll immediately be sent an email with a link that will automatically log you into Groups.io. You will stay logged in for up to 30 days, unless you log out. You can then set a password if you wish, or you can continue to utilize the Email me a link to log in function to log in when needed.

However, the member can also create a new password right away, after logging in. Go to the top right corner - click on their name - and Account. Change the password there.

Of course, the member can send or receive email without going to your group home.

No, they are members in the new group when transfered.
