Re: Welcome
Hello
I've just joined the group and had no problems doing so, but I do have two queries:
1. I don't understand what hashtags are or what they are for. Can you explain please?
2. I don't see any

Chris,

my co-owner and I have discussed opening a group here, but I have a few questions.
First off, I hope it is allowed to have 2 group owners.
We would like to open a group which is not private in that

Re: questions
I'm also interested in moving my groups here. A few questions:
1. What will you do to keep your list addresses white-listedf?
2. What will you do when spam is reported to you?
3. What about longevity?
