Mark,

As a moderator I wish I could elect to receive email notification when a subscriber is moved to the Bouncing list.

And maybe also (again) if they transition from Bouncing to Bounced.

Can someone clarify: would that message go out automatically,

Can someone clarify: would that message go out automatically, or is this a suggestion for group owners to send out when the member is unsubscribed due to this?

(Also: In light of this situation, I'll repeat here my recent wishlist/suggestion, which was unrelated to this issue at the time, that the automatically generated "banned" notice be changed to an automatically generated "removed" notice, since members will presumably in general be removed more often than banned.)

In addition to being able to add pics to the database (another thread), It would also be useful if we could add photos to wiki pages.

Thank you!

Changes to the site this week:

• INTERNAL: More logging to try to track down slow database connection issue.
• NEW: Track bounces of direct adds and posts to subs.
• NEW: Footers in post to subs messages.
• CHANGE: Process FBL reports from AOL.
• BUGFIX: Fixed unsub notifications.
• INTERNAL: Logging of content type when uploading files of people to invite/add
• SYSADMIN: Changed postgres database parameters to better utilize memory.
• BUGFIX: When direct adding people, send out the group welcome message.
• INTERNAL: Work on supporting enterprise version.
• NEW: Subgroups page.
• BUGFIX: After doing a search in activity, clearing the search field and doing another search would use the old search term.
• NEW: Moved all admin functions into a new Admin dropdown in the sidebar.
• SYSADMIN: Renewed SSL certificate.
• BUGFIX: In summernote, if a url is the last line of a document, and it gets autolinked, that change wasn't synced to the dom, so we'd never see it.
• BUGFIX: We weren't sending out unsub notifications when people who were direct added unsubscribed via the link in the direct add email.
• BUGFIX: Fixed link display in databases for links missing titles.
• CHANGE: In the link dialog in summernote, if enter is pressed, don't do a form submit. Also, for new links, don't display anything in the URL field.

Have a good weekend, everybody!

I would like, however, to be able to cull (remove members from) that
list if and when it starts to bog down (or other reasons).

I don't know what the upshot is here, and what we should do in general
regarding our AOL members. ...

Since this incident (and similar ones) I have started to advise my group
members not to use an AOL address for Groups.io groups.

 Here's the notification. Please let me know if you have suggestions for
 improvements:

LOVE this idea. It would be really convenient, with all the info that Shal outlines here. I would like, however, to be able to cull (remove members from) that list if and when it starts to bog down (or other reasons). 

 As do I, especially if it ties in to what Mark mentioned in the mid year roadmap:

"Ability to deactivate members instead of removing them"

Is there anything else you're looking for

No, I just wanted to know whether we could already easily find the information, rather than you having to provide another means to get it. And I was hoping to still get the profile in addition to the info.

Hi, all -

Has there been any substantial development progress made or a revised forecast for availability of these two items: 

(1) Multiple profiles, so users can vary the facts they reveal about them to groups focused on various topics

(2) Anonymous groups?

Again, my understanding of the anonymous groups are that:

• At the time of group set-up, owner selects an option to keep all members identities' private when the group is set up --it is NOT at the member's option.
  
• No direct reply member to member is possible -- ALL replies go to the group as a whole (or to the moderators/owners).  
• There is substitution or masking of members' entire email address in the "sent" field, message header, etc. 
• The moderators will be responsible for assuring there is no ID data in the message text itself.

Mark had originally predicted that this functionality would be ready for testing in early September.  Wondering whether it has gotten onto a back burner given all the other development work in the interim.  Our own projects in this arena are on a back burner, waiting.

Cordially,

Jennifer Christian

Please let me know if you hear from members who have been unsubscribed
this way who claim they have not marked any messages as spam. One
question to ask them is to look in their spam folders to see if any
messages from us are in there inadvertently. Also, I'm open to
suggestions for ways to improve this system.

Is there anything else you're looking for?
