Lost Group Ownership
2
I had several active emails floating about, including two in groups.io. I went to the groups.io page and changed the email to the one I'd like to use. I got a message that the email already existed and would I like to merge things from the email I was dropping to the one I wanted to use. I owned a group under the to-be-merged from email. After allowing the merge, I am no longer owner of that group and so no longer have any admin access. This presents all the issues and problems you might expect, i.e., Is there a way to fix this without having to delete the current group, which I presume means all members and messages are lost? If the only solution is to delete/recreate the group, is there a way to export/import the current member list and all previous messages now that I am no longer owner? Thanks for any help. Brian D.

How to Confirm Email Distribution
4
I’m wondering how to confirm my email message is distributed to the group (NonprofitNetworking). I see that it’s been approved in my message list, but I didn’t receive a copy of the message via the group email. I do have my preferences set to receive a copy. Can anyone clarify? Thanks! Susan

Group - Home directory name
6
This is an odd question. I do not know if it was a typo when I created my group or if it is just the way the system displays information. At the top of page next to the House icon the system displays the name of the group as part of what I would call the breadcrumbs. See this image My issue is the capitalization, my group is Free-mo, not Free-Mo. How do I change the capitalization of the M? Bob

开云体育: a one-person operation?
11
开云体育 itself seems to be a one-person operation. There's been much talk about individual groups with only one Administrator, how they can protect themselves, and what to do if the only one with the keys to the house suddenly becomes unavailable. But what about 开云体育 itself? Does it have any protection? Should its users (the Groups community as a whole) insist that it must? Is there a chance of 开云体育 disappearing for lack of the one to pull the levers and make it keep running and not just free-fall? Regards, Andy I

How do I remove duplicate notification upon direct add?
9
I set up a subgroup and created a Direct Add message to be sent when I add a person. However, upon direct add, the recipient gets TWO messages - a notification AND my direct add message. How do I turn off the notification (the one on top in my screenshot) so that the person only receives my direct add message (the one on the bottom in my screenshot)? Thanks! Taneya

Is there a process for reporting a groups.io group?
3
Hello, Myself and 3 other people run a free-to-members groups.io group in our geographic area for some colleagues. My fellow Admin team members and I have gotten wind that a disgruntled former member who voluntarilly left our group a year ago is now trying to find a way to "report" our group to our platform. He takes issue with our group norms/guidelines and the way they're enforced. I've poked around and haven't been able to easily find a way that such a "report" could be made to the administrators of the groups.io platform. Does anyone here know if there is a process for that and, if so, what that looks like? I want my team and I to be aware and prepared for anything that may come down the pipeline for us in terms of dealing with this individual and his complaints. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Renaming a group - issue
2
I'm looking for any advice - I renamed my group and did not realise the consequences of this. I am now unable to access the group at all as it now just says "site not reached". Is there any way to reverse this change and recover access to my group?

how do i keep main posts out of subgroup?
6
I just started a subgroup and the posts from the main are going to the subgroup. how do i keep main posts out of subgroup? this is a free account from before 2020. I have another subgroup that i created in 2024 and the main posts do not go out to this subgroup. I have compared the settings in all the groups and can not figure this out. When i google it it tells me how, but that option is not on the screen. basically i have a group for 1 "club" created pre 2020 which has a lot of good FREE features, I want to have a group for another "club" with the same FREE features. So i set it as a subgroup. I like the calendar and the ability to setup events and have them sent out via EMAIL prior to the event. thanks in advance -CB

Welcome message

I don't appear to be able to personalize the welcome message on my premium group for a direct add, nor a free group for an invitation. I'm running Windows on an HP desktop pc. Is anyone else having this issue? Thank you.

is our content in groups.io protected from predatory machine learning
3
Hello I've been asked if the discussions we have on groups.io in our small private group are scraped and used as a training dataset by AI firms? I'm saying that I don't think they are and that groups.io works well for people who are not/don't want to communicate via Facebook or google groups. Any suggestions from this group on what else I could say to people who (like myself) are not tech-savvy would be much appreciated - many thanks. PS: The question has arisen because 'the routine violation of copyright by tech firms training AI models on other people’s creative work without permission, acknowledgment or payment' is a hot topic - as so clearly expressed by John Naughton in the Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jan/19/cringing-before-the-tech-giants-is-no-way-to-make-britain-an-ai-superpower

Is there a setting to enable list not found responses when email is sent to a list that does not exist? We have users who mistype the list address and think their email has going through since there is no response. -- Michael Halstead Linux Foundation / Yocto Project Systems Operations Engineer

Fw: [Group_Help] copyright
I know of 2 groups that have been reported several times. I have seen the copyright stuff yet nothing has been done and I know of groups that DID NOT have copyright violations get closed for that very reason. why one and not the others??? ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Duane via groups.io <txpigeon@...> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2025 at 11:15:39 AM EST Subject: Re: [Group_Help] copyright On Thu, Jan 23, 2025 at 07:11 AM, Barbara Upton wrote: why are some groups closed without justification for copyright infringement but others are not? Any that are closed for that reason may have been warned, so there's justification for any that are closed. It's in the ToS, so it shouldn't be a surprise if complaints are made when the terms aren't followed. Duane -- The 开云体育 Help Center includes the Owners Manual and Members Manual.
