Hashtag Use #hashtags

Sorry if this has been asked before, but we are in the process of abandoning Yahoo Groups and want to get our new Groups.io system set up as effectively as possible.

I want to impose a bit of message discipline on our members so that we always follow the "one message; one subject" rule.? Hashtags seemed a great solution, so I set the "posts must be tagged with at least one hashtag" option.

If I log onto Groups.io, and create a message from there, it forces the selection of at least one hashtag.? That's great, just the job.

However, if I create a message in my mail browser and send it to main@[groupname].groups.io and DON'T put a hashtag in the title, the message disappears into the ether.? It shows in my Sent folder, but is nowhere to be found.? I had sort of expected it to come into the moderation process so that a moderator would have to add a hashtag before it could be released to the members.? If you use this mail route, and DO include a valid hashtag in the title, it works as you expect and appears for moderation.

Am I missing something?? Thanks.

 

A message without a hashtag, when required, should be rejected. Check your spam folder. If it's not there, you should probably report it to [email protected]. One other thing. As far as I know, the only way to see a list of existing hashtags is to go online and check.
