Good to know. However, not using the back button is going to be really cumbersome. Imagine you're writing a long, complex reply, and you have to go out of your draft several times to look something up

I'm using FF, so I think this may be the biggy. I've never seen the problem, but always go through the Drafts option on the left menu to get to one. Thanks, Duane

Thanks, Mark, for nailing this down. That’s exactly what happens. I do use Firefox. I’ll try to remember to keep two separate windows open on groups.io until you come up with a fix. Not using the

Hi All, I've spent a bunch of time researching this and trying to reproduce it. Here is what I believe is the bug: - Using Firefox (it's not reproducible in Chrome or Safari), start a reply to a

Once I even noticed it was going on, I used to write them back and ask them how they were replying privately within a thread, because we have PM’s disabled in my group and the replies were clearly

I will check the activity now to see what email addresses they are using. When I got an email to the owner, I would write the member and tell them to resend it. Then the same thing would happen

It took me quite a long time to narrow this down. I ran a bunch of "reply" experiments in my group, and members were willing to be the guinea pigs. Eventually I narrowed it down to verizon or aol

I was wondering why I have been getting a lot of messages to me as owner and not being sent to the group. That isn't good.

At the risk of not picking my battles: I have just had to announce to my group for about the fifth time that replies from users with verizon or aol email on a PC don't post to the group. There's

The problem with using word for groups.io is the formatting is incompatible. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can

It appears to me that there is either a bug, or at least difficult to predict behavior, lurking here somewhere. However, I have to say that I gave up on online drafts in all applications, not just

Not sure I understand the comment..?? You're not seeing that because you're not experiencing the bug. -- J Messages are the sole opinion of the author, especially the fishy ones. My humanity is

I'm not seeing that. Mine is saving each draft when I leave the composition page. Duane

I can verify that this happens on Firefox 81.0.2 and 82.0, both 64bit on Win7. A somewhat easier 'resume' is to use the Uncheck All button to get things back in sync until the underlying problem is

I'm definitely in favor of either a physical button or some indication that the draft was saved. For instance, within a few seconds of tapping the last character, Gmail displays "Draft saved" in grey

Bruce, I was ready to entertain an idea like that at the beginning. But certain features of this, like the fact that it saves the first drsftvand only the first draft, even over the course of about 15

Alastair -- Some constructs are stripped upon save. This includes scripting, iframes, and a lot of inline CSS. The speculation is that this is done so those features are not used as a vector for

J - Here's an idea, portions of which may be in error. If so, I'm sure Mark will correct me. Asynchronous communication between the client and host (I believe groups.io uses jQuery) depends on certain

Since my original post I have found that this seems to work OK in Chrome but not in Firefox. Andy

Does anyone know how to embed code in a groups.io Web site? I have some code which shows a better result than the associated URL does, but can't make it work. Thanks Alastair Sharp
