Hi, this has probably been asked before but I'm new ;) I've seen group where the moderators use email addresses like: caron@moderators_online.co.uk where...
I have been successful with restricted groups that are not listed. But I can clearly see why people want the ability to have a closed group. Once a group...
After uploading quite a few photos to my yahoo group, I received the message that I had exceeded the allowed number of photos. I have noted two things. My...
Bob, ... Rather than attempt to get that address added to your group, you can add it as an alternate posting address of a group member. Your own account, or...
Thanks for the info Shal, I found out that the weather channel website is the problem and not Yahoo groups. Weather Channel has restrictions on how it's alerts...

Sorry. Internally we call "content" things that users post as opposed to data generated automatically by the system. But yes, the elements you cite would (at...
