No. I didn't misunderstand your intent. I received a message after I made a sponsorship. What I didn't pick up on initially was that the message was sent to me as an Owner/Mod of my group not as the

Ironically, I had to deal with a situation somewhat skin to Bruce's in one of my groups tonight. This particular group has four mods (including me, the owner) and a couple of them are difficult egos.

Andy, I think you have misunderstood my intent. I want the member sponsor to receive an acknowledgement of their sponsorship. -- - Wam Regards, Andi

My members have reported that they never received an acknowledgment for receipt or a sponsorship on groups.io. Can you show me what you received? Are you moving the conversation over to GMF? I am new

Per my message on this subject on GMF, I received a notification when I tested the sponsorship feature. How would your user-defined member notice differ? Regards Andy

I would like an acknowledgement notice sent automatically when ever someone sponsors or donates to a group. I appreciate the the way a notice is automatically sent when someone leaves the group. Thank

Andi, Thinking it about it further now, it seems to me that hashtags and subgroups would actually address your issues even better than subtopics, because they apply overall. If you could create

Dear Andy and J Catlady, I appreciate your responses and I have actually considered both of those options :-) And perhaps it is a matter of training members :-) Thank you for your time and

If you want to categorise individual topics within a group then you could use hashtags so one topic may have hashtags such as #creationoftheworld and #bigbang, and another might have

I have nothing specific against your proposal (although it seems complicated while simple in theory), but would just mention that you could use hashtags for those purposes. -- J Messages are the

I would like to see subtopics added to the groups.io options for listservs. An example might as follows: Creation of the world theories (main topic) -Bible (subtopic) -Big Bang (subtopic) -Evolution

I can understand not giving details away about the filtering process itself. It was the assertion in that post that messages detected as spam will be forwarded to Mods rather than being rejected that

In general I don't talk about our spam filtering, for obvious reasons. I made a change that allowed some additional messages from non-members through the spam filter. Thanks, Mark

Hi Mark A message on an active GMF topic suggests that a change was also made regarding spam filtering and sending notifications to Moderators but nothing is mentioned in this update. Can you clarify

Please send me off-list the subject of the message, and the sender. If you can give me the Message-ID from the header, that'd help as well. No, this is the first time this has ever

Thank you, Mark. I think we fell into that window, in #30729 about the missing message and log entries. The message in question was sent at 4:38 AM Pacific time today, and gone a few hours

Hi All, Yesterday, between 1:07pm and 1:38pm Pacific time and again this morning between 4:18am and 5:24am Pacific time, the connections to the activity database were exhausted. What this means is

Bruce, I don't think your request sparked controversy, except as a tangent by people misunderstanding the Moderated attribute and what it applies. I'd be fine with your disable option, and I also

No. The topic AQUIRES the behavior from the hashtag. It does not "inherit" the behavior. Hashtags are not, and cannot be, moderated. Only topics can be modered. -- J Messages are the sole opinion
