P.S. I think the wording on the "Send to Sender" button should be changed to "Private Msg to Sender Only" or "Private Msg to Sender" immediately, if not sooner. Definitely before the roll-out. I've

J, First, you can't say that something that's visually more distinctive "won't work" until its tried. Second, given my years and years on all sorts of forums I can tell you

Yeah it would be a PITA and we'd never opt for it in our moderated groups. It was just a thought for groups where there may be serious legal implications with a mistake group reply. Because any

David, I agree with all of this. As for this: In my group of only 150 members, it is happening several times a month (conservatively).

The different color buttons are in the "test" version. You can change back and forth with "normal" using the page at https://groups.io/test You'll want to bookmark it if you use it because there's

Brian, this is the clearest wording I have seen ""Private Msg to Sender Only"" Sincerely, David Dillard Temple University (215) 204 - 4584 jwne@... . .

We were typing at the same time, and with no coordination between us, and the phrase "private message" showed up because, other than on Groups.io, there is not a single forum on which I participate

Personally, I would roll out the new buttons and see if this helps. This is an issue where there probably is no best answer because I see the same sort of issue in e-mail, for example, where many

I hear David's concerns about messages that go beyond just embarrassing and that could violate privacy. We have these concerns in our group too. This is one reason we moderate every single message.

There are a couple of observations that I would like to share regarding this issue that pull in opposite directions. I am a mail receiving member of many professional and interest discussion groups

This is already available in group settings. Mark recently also added an option to have groups set to send replies ONLY to group or ONLY to sender, rather than offer both options. Or are you

I think it needs to be up to the group whether is a choice for the sender or the choice of the group owner where replies are sent. In some groups, it is important for messages to go only to the
