That's a good point. The seeming inconsistency could be confusing to users. Perhaps the group's home page should specify whether or not editing posts is allowed. -- J Messages are the sole opinion

Google has a history of dropping their products. Let's be ready for a surprise. GIO if on sound financial footing, is likely to last. My 0.02 MKR Virus-free. www.avg.com

Or Groups.io for that matter. The only constant in life is change. Duane

Many thanks, Duane! I feel more comfortable now. I just recently discovered yahoo groups service is discontinued and groups.io kind of took their place, but I may already say I do like the groups.io

Just my $.02 - Years ago we all thought that about Yahoo groups. Google has ended or reduced support for services in the past, so I wouldn't assume that the same won't happen to Google groups. Pete

Since you're not a group owner/mod, you should have been looking in the Members Manual, not the Owners Manual. The Members Manual does mention that owner/mods can always edit messages, but the manual

My hobby group has zero income as well, but we passed the donation hat around and got about 15% of our membership to throw in a couple of bucks each. They were thrilled to express their

I have seen posts from other low revenue 501(3)c NPs that like ours cannot sustain the GIO fees being charged for the file storage needed and the ability to directly add and manage our members. I

Ah; I can now get a better view of the problem. The ability of members to edit posts that have been "published" on a group's web UI and by email to the group's members can be disabled by an owner (or

Sorry, Chris. I forgot to mention a practical case. Though I expected I could edit the message and mend for that. And, coherently, I couldn't. I attach a scrap with what action I can perform on the
