NoMail setting not right in Description

 

In anticipation of moving a Yahoogroup to io, I established a new io group. In Settings, I did not check that NoMail is not permitted, but the Group Description says that NoMail cannot be selected.? Yes, it can!? What might I have done wrong?? Members should be able to access Files without having to receive messages.

Sarah -- Say what? That's a lot of negatives. I really cannot tell what you did.

When I leave the "Disable No Email" box unchecked (meaning "no email" is enabled), it says this: "Members can set their subscriptions to no email." So far, so good.
When I go back and check the box (and click Update Group), the home page says nothing about this.

So I have been unable to get the home page description to say what you said it said. Can you send us a screenshot?

Members should be able to access Files without having to receive messages.
If you leave the box UNchecked, and they do choose to set their individual subscription to "No Email," then members should indeed be able to do this, assuming Files>Permissions is set correctly.

Hope this helps,
Bruce
 

I sent a reply - what happened to it?

Group Settings - the first four have cute icons, but the last three have a circle with a slash, which I assume is can't be done.
It's true that Members cannot edit their messages, so the slash-in-circle is correct, but the other two are not right.
It is TRUE that archives are visible to subscribers only
and it is TRUE that members can set subscription to NoMail.

You've assumed incorrectly.? What it says on the Home Page appears to be correct according to what you said earlier.? The slashed icon doesn't mean it can't be done, it's just the icon that was chosen.
