Thanks, Shai. I had created it in Member notices rather than as a New topic. Problem solved. Now I just have to reset them all to no email!

Elizabeth,
I am somewhat confused by the special notices thing too. I wanted to
use it to make sure all the people that have been transferred to
groups from yahoo actually knew about it. So I changed all the no
email people to special notices, and wrote an email explaining the new
situation.
So far so good.
Except you could have spared yourself some effort (I think) by checking "Disable No Email" in the Message Policies section of your group's Settings.
But I have no idea how to send this. I¡¯m obviously missing something.
The "New Topic" page ought to have a "Send this message as a special notice." checkbox.
Alternatively, maybe I¡¯ve messed up the whole list, since there don¡¯t
seem to have been any messages sent or received today!
That's a little harder to guess at. Have you (or anyone else) tried to post any messages? Via web or by email?
And where are you looking? Your email Inbox? The group's Messages section? The group's Pending page?
One way to learn if messages have been attempted is to look in the Activity page. Click the "Message Activity" tab at the top to limit the list to message-related entries. Do you see any activity? Do the items give you a clue about why nothing has posted?
