Hi All, I feel that all homeowners in Fairfield Estates should have the opportunity to participate in the discussions regarding the mailboxes because this involves their tax dollars and because they will be visiting the mailboxes almost daily. I now have email addresses for 17 of the 18 homes. About two-third have joined groups.io. If you haven¡¯t joined and want to, just reply to the invitation that you received last Monday, March 1. Don¡¯t write anything, just tap the reply button and send. ?If you can¡¯t find the invitation, I¡¯ll have another sent. If you have trouble joining, let me know and I¡¯ll deal with the problem. I will continue sending emails to those not in groups.io to keep them up to date regarding developments. But if you haven¡¯t joined groups.io and want to send an email to those in the group, then you will need to email me, and I will forward your message to the group. The groups.io email list is far simpler to deal with that the previous list. If you want to send an email to the group, then all you have to do is send the message to one email address. Previously you had to ¡°reply all¡± to a message or to cut and paste the entire list of email addresses from some past email. Furthermore, you can view all past groups.io messages on the web. This simplifies things for me because in the past I had to send new members past emails to bring them more or less up to date. Basic instructions for groups.io. (1) How to send a message to the group:? Send the email to [email protected] and the message will go to everyone in the group. (2) How to read past messages: All email messages are stored as ¡°Topics¡± on our groups.io website, and the Topics are label with the subject line of the email. To read past email messages you must go to the website. There are at least two ways to do that and I¡¯ll refer to them as (2a) and (2b). (2a) The simplest way to read past messages is to go directly to the website. Its URL (web address) is /g/FairfieldEstatesMailBoxes I have that bookmarked on my browser. (2b) Alternatively, you can go to the website from any email that you receive from the group. At the bottom of any email from the group you will see a list of options that include: View/Reply Online | Reply To Group | Reply To Sender | Mute This Topic | New Topic.? To go to the website click on ¡°View/Reply Online¡± and that will take you that message on the website. Now you must navigate from that message to the list of Topics. How you do it will depend on if you are on a computer or cell phone. If you are on a computer, to the left of the current message on the web is a list of options and one of those is ¡°Messages¡±. ?Click on Messages, and you will see a list of all past Topics which contain all past email messages. If you are on a cell phone (at least an
iPhone), at
the top of the message on the website you will see a button
labeled ¡°Single¡±.
Press ¡°Single¡± then ¡°Topics¡± and you will see the list of all past
Topics and
email messages. Ken |
