Separate settings apply to each of the three subject areas. This brings up the main Settings page; scroll down to Message Formatting , and look for Attachments , controlled by 2 drop — down menus. The Out of Space drop — down only applicable if attachments are allowed in the first place determines what happens if the storage limit is reached; the options are:.

If you select "delete old attachments," attachments will be purged oldest-first, on a weekly basis. NOTE: If an attachment is manually deleted either by editing the message or by deleting an image from the Emailed Photos folder , its associated message will display an Edited tag in the message archive, explaining the deletion. If an attachment is purged by the above group setting, the corresponding message does not display an Edited tag. Scroll further down the same page to Features , and within that section Files.

There is also a checkbox that allows photos to be uploaded to the files section; they still take up some of your allotted storage space. It must be noted that this checkbox only affects the uploading of photos in a photograph format, e. Word or pdf are not controlled by this checkbox. Immediately below Files there are corresponding settings for Photos. The Max Size in Photos drop — down determines the resizing of photographs uploaded from the web UI; this is down to personal choice, but it is worth remembering that the larger the photo size allowed the more storage is used up.

Members Manual Detailed information to help you make the most of your group memberships. Getting Started A guide to help you set up and manage your Groups. The account then goes through one or more of the following steps:. The goal in this step is to determine whether the bouncing is ongoing or serious enough for us to take action.

If one of the two following two criteria hold, we conclude that it is:. If there is a span of 4 consecutive days with no bouncing, we conclude that the bouncing has been resolved and we take the account out of bounce handling — until the next possible bounce, in which case the process starts over again. If either 1 or 2 hold, we conclude that the account is experiencing serious or ongoing bouncing and continue to Step 2.

If there is no response within 15 days, we go to Step 3. The account now sits in virtual limbo in its groups. Or they may decide to simply remove the account from their groups. Note that bouncing activity information is accessible to individual users as well as group moderators. Any user can view their own bounce history by going into the Subscription page of their groups and clicking on Email Delivery History, or by going into their Account page and clicking on Recent Bounces.

Integrations allow you to connect your Groups. There are two types of integrations, Group Integrations and Member Integrations. Group integrations allow outside content to be automatically sent to your Groups. Group integrations are configured by the moderators and are not controlled by the group members. Group integrations can be moderated, which means that any integration messages must be approved before they are sent to the group.

One example of a group integration is the Feed integration. The feed integration allows you to post items from RSS feeds to your group. Is there a blog associated with your group? Use the Feed integration to automatically have new blog posts be sent to your group. Member integrations allow your members to export content automatically from the group. One example of this is the Google Drive integration.

With it, your members can have attachments that are sent to the group be automatically saved to their Google Drive account. There are options to specify the type s of attachments to save, and whether the messages should be tagged with a specific hashtag. Groups have the option of creating customized, pre-written messages, called Member Notices, that can be sent to group members at various times.

Member Notices make it convenient for moderators to send commonly used messages to members under various circumstances without having to rewrite the text each time. In the case of a member-initiated event, such as a member leaving the group or joining an unrestricted group, using a Member Notice also makes it possible to have a message sent to the member automatically. To create a notice, click on the "New Notice" button, located at the bottom of the list of notices.

The Notice Type defaults to "Welcome"; click on the right arrow to bring up the dropdown menu and pick the type you want. Type in the desired message body.

For Welcome, Direct Add, and Invite notices, we provide default text for the message body, which will appear automatically and can be edited as desired. You can create more than one notice of any type except Group Guidelines, of which at most one notice is allowed. To specify which notice is to be used at the time of a corresponding event, activate it by checking its "active" box.

At most one notice of each type can be active at any given time. No activation is needed for Note to Member notices, because you choose which notice to use at the time of the actual event.

No activation is required for the Group Guidelines notice; once created, it is active. Sent automatically to a member who is banned from the group.

The notice marked "active" is the one sent; if there is no active notice, none is sent. Sent automatically to a member who leaves the group. Some groups use this notice to ask the member why they left the group; responses will go to the group owner address. Sent automatically to anyone who applies for membership in a restricted group.

The notice marked "active" is the one sent; if no notice is active, none is sent. Sent automatically when an application for membership in a restricted group is rejected. Sent automatically when a member is removed from the group.

Sent automatically to members who join an unrestricted group, or whose membership in a restricted group has been approved. A Welcome notice is always sent to new members. If the group has not created and activated a custom notice, we activate and send a default. The following notices are used in a slightly different way. Instead of being sent completely automatically, each is used as the default text of a message to the member at the time a moderator initiates the corresponding event, and can then be edited if desired by the moderator before finalizing the event:.

Message sent when a moderator direct-adds someone to a premium or enterprise group. The active notice, if any, is used as the initial text and can be edited for one-time use during the Direct Add process. A Direct Add notice is always sent; if the group has not created and activated a custom notice, we activate and use a default.

You may create as many Invite type notices as you think you may need or none. You might want one for general use and one for special reasons.

When you're sending an Invite, you can select one from the list of Notices at the bottom of the Customize Message area and further customize it as needed. This further customization is not saved to the notice. Sent when a moderator rejects a pending message from a moderated member or in a moderated group or topic. When a moderator rejects a pending message by email, the notice marked "active" is the one sent. When a moderator rejects a pending message by web the text box for the rejection notice is initially left empty.

The moderator can write the entire message by hand or choose one of the Rejected Message notices as initial text. Note to Member notices are pre-written messages on any subject that can be sent at any time to a member, or group of members, using the Send Message feature from either the member page or the member list.

To send one, instead of filling in the message subject and text on the Send Message screen, select "Notices" and use the dropdown to select the one you want. It can then be edited for one-time use if desired. It has the following features and options:. Unlike the other notice types, a group can create at most one Group Guidelines notice.

If created, a Guidelines tab will automatically appear on the group home page. The rest of the features are optional and are specified as follows when creating or editing the notice:. Subject — the subject line of the email when the notice is sent to a group member separately from the monthly message to the group. Email subject - the subject line of the message as it appears in the group archives, if mailed monthly to the group.

If unchecked, the tab will be visible to the public. Send on Join - if this box is checked, the Guidelines will be sent automatically via email to new members.

Send monthly to the group - if this box is checked, the Guidelines will be sent as a message to the group on the 1st of each month. The hashtag is set to "Use by moderators only" and "replies by moderators only," so that no non-moderators can use the it. Send monthly to special - this box appears only if "Sent monthly to the group" has been checked. If checked, the monthly Guidelines message to the group will be sent as a special notice, so that members whose email delivery option is Special Notice Only will receive it in addition to members whose email delivery is Individual Messages.

In this case, the guidelines hashtag is also set to "Special.

Full Featured Digest will group the days messages into batches of 12 and send each batch when the twelvth is posted.

Full Featured Digests include at the top a list of the enclosed topics, clickable as links to take you to that topic. Daily Summary sends a once-daily list of topics posted that day. Unlike the digests the summary does not include the text of any of the messages, only the list of topics.
