  • Group member can't post messages.?

    They don't get any bounce message when using e-mail, but their posts never appear.

    They don't appear in the group member list under either their Yahoo user name or e-mail address, but if I try to send them an invitation it says they're already a member.

    There has been no e-mail saying they have left the group and nothing in the activity log about them.

    How can I sort this out for them?

    Cheers,

    Martin.

  • Why do all group e-mails now come from sender groupname@yahoogroups.com?

    The From: field was previously populated with the sender's Yahoo! ID or display name, but now most just come from the name of the group @yahoogroups.com.

    The actual format is:

    From: "<YahooID> <real e-mail address> [groupname]" <groupname@yahoogroups.com>

    It used to be:

    From: <display name> <real e-mail address>

    I use Thunderbird to read Group e-mails and unless the author signs their message, I've no idea who has written them as they all show groupname@yahoogroups.com as the sender.

    Please change this back.

    Regards,

    Martin.
