I saw that too, but when I look at the email address in the member list it doesn't have that problem. You wouldn't receive any emails if it was wrong. I don't know how or even where I would fix that. It could be because your profile doesn't have the user name filled in so it is substituting your email address. I don't know. You could try updating your profile and see if that fixes it. Looks like a groups.io bug.

Re: Creating an Outlook Rule for Macsupportcentral
#Mail
That is where I started, but it did not work Barry, since the from shows the members eddy, not the group's.
Look at the from on this email. it is not from? macsupportcentral, but?"Brent via Groups.Io" <whodo678@...>
You can change it to "to", but I also had Subject contains [macsupportcentral]
which could cause a problem since I also had a rule to move any old MSC emails to an separate folder.

Messages from the group arrive with two addresses: one from the poster and one from Sent by [email protected]. Outlook is not seeing the second address so it fails.
Messages from users can have two forms: just the author's name, the author's name plus "via Groups,io". I can make a working rule for the second form using ""
Messages with just the author's name will require using that name since Outlook isn't seeing the Sent by address. Needless to say, creating a rule for every subscriber to the group is out of the question.
Kindly share your thoughts and suggestions.

I mentioned that groups.io mangles some from email addresses. Mine is showing as:
Brent via Groups.Io" <whodo678@...>
But I noticed that many here are not having that done to theirs. I think it might have to do with how I joined groups on yahoo. Could one of the admins or mods here look into that and correct it or tell me how?
I would much appreciate it.

Hi
I am attempting? to set up a new group due to the Yahoo betrayal.
I just tried? in import a database (csv) but nothing happened.
I took a shot at a manual build but can't seem to make it format the way
to which my group is accustomed and when I've made errors, I can't seem to
correct or remove them without? deleting the whole thing and starting over.
Suggestions?
Like to know before I try anything else ( like importing the group/archived images, etc.).

May I suggest starting your own thread, instead of trying to steal someone else's?
You can do this by going into your groups.io account and changing your prefs.

I could not see them anyway, because I joined the group with an email addy, not by getting a yahoo groups account, so my vote is to let them remain and die with yahoo.

One thing we can now do on groups.io is add screenshots, photos etc to our messages. I'm not limiting them however, storage on groups.io is limited so when we reach our max they will remove our oldest attachment(s) to make room for the next new one if needed. Just so you know. This storage limitation also applies to files etc that we upload.

Re: Creating an Outlook Rule for Macsupportcentral

Thanks, Dave. You got me headed in a new direction. Your suggestion didn't work however I noted that Outlooks "To:" line is always " [email protected]". My new working rule is "Any recipient" contains " [email protected]". Additionally, I changed my macsupportcentral preference to "Daily Journal". That, more than anything, will set things to how they were. Cheers
