To the group administrator(s):

Does this group support attachments? If not, why not?

If attachments are not allowed, then why is uploading files to the group's Files area apparently disabled?

If a member (such as me) wishes to pass on to others a .zip for example containing helpful information/code, how do I do it? If I cannot attach the .zip for to my reply and I cannot upload it to the Files area, how the heck can this information be passed on to others?

Yes, I realize I could upload it to somewhere else (such as my web site's FTP area or to Google Drive or DropBox, etc), but WHY should I have to do that? Doesn't it make infinitely more sense to allow such files to be uploaded to the actual GROUP they pertain too?

Just wondering.

Attachments to a message is one thing, uploading to the Files area is an other. :-)
The first was already allowed, I just updated the setting to allow the second.

Try it now and let's see if it works.

Oh. Sorry! I guess I should have checked first.

I prefer uploading to the Files area over attaching them to my group messages since not everyone may be interested in whatever it is I wish to pass on to the group and thus might not appreciate receiving an email attachment. But being able to send an HTML message with, say, a tiny screen grab in order to illustrate something the poster was trying to say *is* sometimes helpful. (Me, I prefer text emails over HTML, but do admit that HTML emails so *sometimes* come in handy.)

I just updated the setting to allow the second.

It works fine! THANK YOU, René! :)
